    How do I place a background image that is only seen around the edges. I want the content to appear to be all on either a white, dark gray or semi-transparent "background". I just DON'T want the background image to be what all of my text, pictures, etc. are on top of.

    AND... in the footer, it always shows up as The River/'s Edge Studio when I type River's. Help!

    I reinstalled and it still shows a transparent "body" of the website on top of my background. I want the entire body of the entire website to be a solid or semi-transparent color and the background to be behind it and just show around the edges.

    HELP!

    Thank so much! Now, two more questions -

    1. How would I change the white body background to semi-transparent? How would I change it to another color?

    2. The River's Edge Studio, Inc. on the very bottom - under the footer - still has \\' where I want it to just have a '. What's going on there?

    1)
    Paste this code in Custom CSS
    Appearance > Theme Option > Styling Option > Custom CSS

    Code:
    .bgimagecolor{
    background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.7)!important;}
    Note:- Adjust "rgba" color according to your requirement.

    2)
    Go to the Appearance > Theme options > Footer settings > Footer text
    and enter your text there for footer bottom.
    It will resolve your issue, If not then please send screenshot of the area exactly where you are getting this issue.

    1. Where do I send the screen shot to? It seems to appear whenever I put the ' in River's. If I take the ' out, then the / goes away. Help!!

    2. How do I change the white body to be semi-transparent?

    3. How do I change the color of the footer?

    Thanks so much for all of your help! I really appreciate it!

    That code didn't seem to work to change the footer color.

    I also now have 3 / in the bottom footer text!

    The code you gave me for the body, didn't change it to semi-transparent.

    And... I added code to get a black border around the slider images, but how do I get it to match the same color as the menu? The gray color that is your menu color choice? I can get it to be "gray" but not the same color as the menu color.

    1. I'm still hoping for a way to solve my bottom footer issue. With the \ in front of the '

    2. How do I change the menu color to a darker gray? How about the boarder around the slider images. It is black and I would like it a custom color.

    3. Few of the custom codes I have entered have worked at all - nothing changes. Help!!!

    4. I would like the footer a custom color. The codes I have been given haven't changed it at all.

    5. How can I make the menu words not appear to have a shadow to them?

    6. I don't have any other social buttons but FB - any suggestion as to a widget that will make that area look better? I tried the main widget "Facebook Like Box" and it looked horrible, not to mention that the Title was an off color - it didn't match other other footer title colors at all!!!
