I have been looking through the files for a couple days but I can't seem to narrow down the relationship of the gray border images to the inner columns. I have found the css entries for the other portions of my site that I will need to amend. I have also changed the width of the wrapper which changes the width of my site to that which I need it to be. However, the grey border images don't resize to their desire locations and I can't figure out where to change that. Would anyone happen to know where that is?

i have no idea how andreas looks like , or how it looks like on your website, however afai got from the above posts, it has a bg image that is set for the default width.. you can stretch/resize it with an image editor like photoshop etc.. if you provide a link to ur blog i could have a look at what the problem really is

Here is the skin on my site:
*URL removed*
As you can see, I have changed my wrap width from 760 to 1060. The header margin is still at 760 up top and you can see how that normally shows. So, how do I achieve adjusting the bg.gif image to fit the rest of the page?

try using [url=http://www.tilqi.com/assets/bg.gif]this one[/url] see if it's any better

Negative. That doesn't show up at all.

Still trying to nail this down.
I fixed the margin issue. I can't figure out why why the repeated background image is only showing on the margin of the header.

Good suggestion!
I pulled my source and resolved all the non standard parts of the source. This did not fix the problem but I was able to fix a few minor coding problems from a Free HTML widget. I did figure out a little more about the problem.
index.main.php calls bg.gif and repeats it along the Y axis of the site. When I remove some of the items in the blog to shorten the screen I can see the bg.gif is positioned appropriately on the top and bottom of the page. I would assume it is displaying properly "behind" the content of my site.
I think that what I need to figure out is how do I change the spacing between the background images on the left and right. I have looked all over but I can't find it. Any ideas?

It's a single background image with a "gap" where the content goes, you need to edit the image and increases the gap to the correct size ;)

Wow...had I plopped the gif in mspaint sooner. A classic case of over-complication. Thanks for the help!

No worries ;)

Hi Noods,
Search this forum and you'll find out. I tried and failed. The problem with andreas is the (gray) border images. They determine the width of the inner columns.
I can be done however.
Good luck
