    I've created a skin that has several menus, one being a vertical down the side that has a background image. I've set an image below it that I'd like to repeat if the content area spans longer. However it repeats the navigation background image instead of the repeater image. I've set the background image of the navigation to a fixed width and height and set the repeater image as a background with the  . I've attached my skin files so that perhaps you can help me. I'm totally out of ideas. I even tried adding a css class for a repeater image and applied that to the table cell I want to repeat.

    hello,

    I have installed the skin and had a look at the code, in your table row you have specified the class of repeat and repeat2, however in your skin.CSS file there is no code for the repeat class.

    I also noticed that there is a lot of table code within here, you may find it useful to use divs and assign a class to the div, I find it much easier to create skins using divs than tables.

    It may be worth having a look at this tutorial:
    Thanks,

    I find these tutorials to be helpful but outdated. With DNN5 here many of your tutorials leave us newbie users very frustrated.

    I am working on DNN 5 tutorials.

    Bear in mind that even though the look of DNN has slightly changed in DNN5, all of the info on skinning and most of the admin is the same. The admin tends to have moved to different areas or they have just added new features.
