I think this may at least give you some ideas.

Good Luck!

Thanks for the help! But being the ignorant person I am, I tried getting it to work until it did. The site now looks l33t.

Yeah, if your using html tables and you want to type text over a picture, you just do it like this:

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%">
<tr><td bgbackground="http://domain.com/image.gif"> your text here </td></tr>
</table>

or

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%">
<tr><td background="http://domain.com/image.gif"> your text here </td></tr>
</table>

--- not sure , i think its the first.

dimx, HTML is enabled on this forum, so you need to put &amp;lt; and &amp;gt; for &lt; and &gt; symbols in HTML. :)

Ugh, i forgot..

&lt;table border="0"&gt;
&lt;tr&gt; &lt;td bgbackground="image.gif"&gt; your text &lt;/td&gt; &lt;tr&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;


hope that works :)
