Modifying existing CSS to display different background and table boxes

[bobby8685]

A friend of mine found this style sheet for me. It is working fine but I would like to make some changes to it. I would like to know how to alter the backgrounds of the page. By backgrounds I mean behind where the text and images are placed and behind that where the entire page sits.

I also would like to change the table boxes to a rounded corner instead of the rectangles they are now. I did a search and found this code, but I do not how to exactly add it into the existing CSS. I am mostly confused about "your image here part".

/* set the image to use and establish the lower-right position */ .cssbox, .cssbox_body, .cssbox_head, .cssbox_head h2 { background: transparent url(YourImageHere.png) no-repeat bottom right; } 

.cssbox { width: 335px !important; /* intended total box width - padding-right(next) */ width: 320px; /* IE Win = width - padding */ padding-right: 15px; /* the gap on the right edge of the image (not content padding) */ margin: 20px auto; /* use to position the box */ }

/* set the top-right image */ .cssbox_head { background-position: top right; margin-right: -15px; /* pull the right image over on top of border */ padding-right: 40px; /* right-image-gap + right-inside padding */ } 

/* set the top-left image */ .cssbox_head h2 { background-position: top left; margin: 0; /* reset main site styles*/ border: 0; /* ditto */ padding: 25px 0 15px 40px; /* padding-left = image gap + interior padding ... no padding-right */ height: auto !important; height: 1%; /* IE Holly Hack */ } 

/* set the lower-left corner image */ .cssbox_body { background-position: bottom left; margin-right: 25px; /* interior-padding right */ padding: 15px 0 15px 40px; /* mirror .cssbox_head right/left */ }

You can see the existing CSS here at greenbackent.com, or the link below. Thanks for any help.

To change the background images, simply replace "YourImageHere.png" with a path and filename to whatever image you want to put in the background of the element that that rule is for.

Hope this helps,
