Your gallery page is 8980px wide. Yipes! Reset that, and make sure all your pages are set for the same number, maybe 975 at the widest. At that point, you can maybe be able to reset the background to black successfully.

Keep at it--you're gettin' there!

Thanks I fixed all the page sizes and no luck still is white background any other suggestions for this issue ??

This might help!

Thank you that helped it out but still have a white background and have done the page properties and background is set to balck why will it not work is there a coding error somewhere??

Hi, looking at your pages code, i have it down as white. Have you changed it to black/saved it/ & republished?
Also on looking at the code i see there is a part on the lower area with
Book your Adventure Today. This needs the blue handles pulling in to help with the side scroll.

I think it would be better when the background is black, but with a white page for background for text, but with the text changed to black.


I have noticed that your Gallary page is not centered.
The big font on your site is great. Makes it easy to read.

Did you try to open a blank page in bluevoda, and set the background to black and then just open your page with your content, copy and paste to new page?

But otherwise, site looks fine. (I would say you have done a great job, considering it's your first website).

Congratulations

You are the best to both of you and Thank you have made the adjustments hope its better. Still shows white it almos opens up in black then boots to the white? Can I change the coding?? It would be alot of work to redo all the pages again, but it did work when I redid a sample page and viewed it. Is there another easier step?? It showed up with the black background. HMmmmm why is that?
thanks again

It just takes time to copy and paste, but luckily, if you copy the content and paste it on the new page, it paste it exaclty on the same place on the new page.

I did some of my pages like that. But eventually the problem was fixed. (I had more than 20 pages...you only have a few).

You should experiment with your font color. See how it will look if the font was in black. Or a darker grey. (But it is your decision, just a thought).

I hope you find a solution to your background problem. I think if you can get it right to set the background to black, the site will look neater.

Good luck Robin...

Anything else, just shout....(in letters...lol)

Thats just wierd I tryed like you said to copy all and aste to my sample page that worked but it showed with a white ack ground how unusal is that. Gotta be something to do with the coding or html text or a pic or something cause the top picture the header showed fine with a black background when I just had that in the sample one haha go figure eh??

It seems to me, that Murphy's Committee has bookmarked you...lol

It is really an odd problem. Make sure that your pics you are using, are cropped, (so that there is no unusual white around the pics).

Hope some genius comes this way to help you..... then I will also know how to help next time..... Keep me updated if you get the problem fixed.
(I am holding my thumbs...)

Thanks again
Robin

Its only a pleasure. Let me know if you need any more help/or another review.

Nice web page, especially for a start. I think the overall design is pretty good. I would suggest using software to shrink those pictures rather than shrinking them in BlueVoda because it causes distortion. If you don't know how, you may be able to just get the dimensions and use MSPaint/Photoshop or something.

A few tweaks here and there and you're set. Seems like website can never be tweaked enough.

Thanks for that I used jpegresizer maybe thats why the distortion but will work on it some more any hints to the background can't get it to stay black??
