The background for the site (snow.png 200x200) is set to repeat on the x axis only on the CSS.
Therefore only the top 200px of the site has a background for me. the rest is just blue.

Seems like its missing repeat-y (or remove the repeat-x and the browser repeats on both automatically)

also, its like that no matter what BG I choose.

I'm pretty sure it is supposed to be like that for the snow.

As for the other backgrounds, they all load fine here, Windows 8, Chrome, Firefox, Opera and IE10.

That's how it's supposed to be. It would look tacky if it repeated indefinitely.

they all do it for me? Each BG is a strip across the top

True, the snow one does looks good just at the top and it fades out to transparent at the bottom. The others shouldn't thought I don't think



edit: they all fill the full screen for me on the news page, but not on the forum. Guessing its some overlap of code between the new snow BG which doesn't repeat and the old full ones which should.

The ad has a 100% width box which covers the snow for me. I only see the bottom of it.

I don't actually get any background on the forum at all.

Same here. Ad obscures everything else.

Actually... it doesn't look that bad if it repeats both ways. Still prefer 'Y' only though.

I'll admit that I use adblock and that's probably why only I have noticed this. since the ad will cover it for anyone else who doesnt. (Didn't even know there was an ad there!)
also, I set the BG to repeat on the Y axis and thought it looked good with the snow, that how I almost failed with my first post
however, I do still see it on the forum with any BG so there is a problem. Was a big "phew" when I noticed that
