 * Url for background pattern in header and footer is saved in the configuration
   database as http. When the site is accessed through https, the background patterns
   attempt to load as http which makes modern browsers display a broken image picture.
 * Changing these links to relative would fix the problem.
 * I can do it by manually changing the entry in the database, but every time I 
   save the config again it reverts to forcing http.

 * Hi,
 * You can try using custom css.
    Refer to this article for more information. [http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_background-image.asp](http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_background-image.asp)

 * I was really hoping for a theme patch. It’s not impossible to change manually,
   but it is a highly visible bug in the theme that probably ought to be fixed.

 * Ok, let’s hope the theme author sees this thread and get it fixed soon..
