I’ve added a background image from one of the WordPress.com theme called ‘Path.jpg’. I couldn’t find any other images online without having to apply `credits` (whatever that is) just to use one ROYALTY FREE background for my weblog.
The `background position` element is set to `center`. However, I cannot remove the `extra sides`. When using the web browser’s zoom-in feature, the extra sides disappear. But zooming-out will make the sides of the images appear as a tryptich. A screen resolution of 800 by 600 pixels doesn’t show the extra sides to the `header` element.
As a result, I had to remove the `background color` and make that `transparent. The original colors (taken from the Tarski theme) for the links are brighter by three notches, too. The once darker colors no longer faded into the darker background image.

Purrfect header and goes quite well with the name. Good job gal!
You’re up so late! Thanks! I was imagining a similar nature scene, only instead of a person, I’d like one showing an angel walking.
I always stay up late!! Always working and sometimes lurking. lol
