Background image in an Article?

Not a bug.

Trying to put a background image into an article has always been problematic because the Forum has it's own background.  I don't know how to do this (maybe somebody else can suggest something) but you would be better off having the image in the code in the article (not as a background image but a regular image) and then using some css in the code to float the text above it, if that is the effect you are trying to achieve.

The other thing you could do is to create an external html page with your background image and text, etc., and call it into the article with an iframe.

Only possible suggestions of how you could do this.

I'll try using CSS layers with your suggestion of floating txt over a regular image. Don't close the thread as I'll be reporting back.

Ugh, same thing, it shows up in the editor but not in the article :(
