# Main Content Background image padding?

 * Under theme options, advanced styling, main content background, I’d like to add
   an image that stays just below the content. Can I add top padding to that somehow?
   I just don’t know what attributes to use in the custom css section in order to
   add it. I could also add it as a footer background, but can’t get the settings
   quite right to show the whole image (height). Thanks! Great theme!

 * Hey,
    Adding top “padding” would be really hard since it’s a responsive theme
   and that distance would change on every page and screen size. I think you would
   be better off adding it to the footer and settings a min-height for the footer.
 * can you post a link?

 * gvsod.alphagraphicsbozeman.com is where it’s currently hosted. I could probably
   add it to the footer, yes, and then add a minimum height – that could work if
   you can help me! Thanks!

 * ok, what is the image? When I look at your site I don’t see it in the footer?
   Can you set it then I can help you with the min height. I need to see the image
   to know what kind of min-height you need.

 * Ok I’ve added it to the footer. I just need to make it so that it’s either below
   or above the footer text… The image itself is this: [http://gvsod.alphagraphicsbozeman.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Depositphotos_6812509_footer.jpg](http://gvsod.alphagraphicsbozeman.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Depositphotos_6812509_footer.jpg)

 * Ok so you can use this css if you want to add below everything:
 *     ```
       .footerclass {
           background: url(http://gvsod.alphagraphicsbozeman.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Depositphotos_6812509_footer.jpg) repeat-x bottom center;
           padding-bottom: 200px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Or this css if you want to add above:
 *     ```
       #containerfooter.footerclass {
           background: url(http://gvsod.alphagraphicsbozeman.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/Depositphotos_6812509_footer.jpg) repeat-x top center;
           padding-top: 200px;
       }
       ```

 * And I just put that in the custom css section? and by “above everything” and “
   below everything” you’re referring to the footer?

 * hk.graphics,
    Yes, you would just paste it in your custom css box in Theme Options
   > Advanced Settings. Above everything meaning above your footer text and below
   meaning below your footer text.
