Hi all.
I have a webcomic (well no kidding..) and I know how to update and all that, but I read the instructions for keentaging, and I'm still like... "Hu?" on the how-to of getting a Background up for the site. I can't figure out how to upload it. Does anyone have a code or a special name I have to give the template file to upload it? Help would really be appriciated.

The background as in the HTML background? Just use HTML code for anything that isn't a keentag thing.
<body style="background:url(/images/background.jpg);">

also if you want it to be a colour you can do <body bgcolor="#XXXXXX"> where the X's are the code for the colour. You can also use the name for simple colours (i.e. <body bgcolor="black">
you can also use <body background="image.jpg"> where image is the URL of the picture.

Basicly, in the indextemplate.html file (And dailytemplate.html, if you want your archives to have the same background) look for the line of code that says:
You can add in the background code that the others discribed under this line. Then run a manual update. The image itself should be in your 'images' folder, and the URL for the image in the tag should be something like "/images/background.gif" (Or whatever the filename of your background image is.) After it's updated, it should be there.

The regular update should do it.
