You’d think I wouldn’t have to ask on this… but 😛

```auto

#image {
	text-align: center;
	margin: 0 auto;
}
body {

background-image: url(splash_onepixel.jpg);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
background-color: #5d96ff;
background-position: top;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
text-align: center;
position: absolute;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
text-align: center;
position: absolute;
color: #5d96ff;
font-size: 10px;
font-family: verdana, helvetica, sans-serif;
font-style: normal;
}

```

```auto

 
 [img]splash_image.jpg[/img]
 

```

That’s not working… so what did I do wrong?
