 * I’ve been attempting to have my tiled background to start beneath my header image
   so that I have a long bar of the background colour visible while still having
   the tiled image available for scrolling through the page.
 * I’ve tried various methods of inserting
 * >  background: url(‘/wp-content/uploads/2013/03 /1343333842_Pattern0518.jpg’);
   > 
   > background-repeat:repeat-y; background-position: 0 105px;
 * But it doesn’t seem to matter where I put it, whether it’s in the body or page,
   it doesn’t work. I’ve also looked into any plugins that may help me, but have
   had no such luck in that regard.

 * Sorry, what doesn’t work?
    Your CSS isn’t loading at all and no styles work? 
   Your background-repeat doesn’t work? Your background position doesn’t work? Your
   background image doesn’t load?
 * Also provide a link to the webpage with the issue.

 * What isn’t working is the fact that I would like the background image to start
   lower so that I have a bar of background color visible, from what I’ve read this
   should be possible, but I cannot seem to find a way to get it to work. (Background
   Position)
 * It pretty much just always has cover over the entire background of the site.
 * Rather I’m not sure if what I’m doing is even correct.
 * It’s a child theme of twenty eleven
