Good news and the bad news about the background disorder!

Hi Guys,

Here are the latest news about the backgrounds appearing too small:

The good news first. I fixed all the background codes, so they should work just fine. (but if there is still problems with any codes, please leave a comment and I will fix the problem).

And then the bad news. You have to replace your existing background code with a new fixed one of your own. You have to find the HTML/Java Script gadget where you have the background code and remove the old code and then add the new fixed code.

I'm having a problem with my background at http://www.sbartist.blogspot.com

I peeked to your blog, and you can find the fixed background code here:

Just remove the old code and replace it with the new one. :)

Lisa said...

Ok I have tried to do what you suggested. Blogger will not allow me to delete my html or allow me to post a new code from your site. I do not know what else to do.

Got to "design" > look for that the HTML/Java Script gadget where you have the old background code, remove that code and paste the new code there.

You don't have to do anything to your html code and you should not post the code either.

Terry said...

I tried the suggestion with the new numbers and nothing changed, but where you logo was at the top is now an "X." Would love for you to stop by and give me a hand! Thank you so much!!

Terry said...

Thank you, I just copied and added the new code! WooHoo!

Do you know that your corrected 3-column backgrounds work with Blogger's Picture Window template? When yours had shrunk, I tried some from another source that worked with Minima and Picture Window. I just tested the Bunny & Snowman I had used before (had 2 col now 3 col) and it worked with Picture Window. Then I tried the new one, and that did, too. Check it out on my blog at: http://octoberlace.blogspot.com. Theresa

Mullakin on ongelma oman blogitaustani kanssa. Jostakin syystä reunat näkyvät ruudun keskellä, mikähän olisi syy tähän?

Paljon kiitoksia, jos viitsit avittaa hieman :)

Rek said...

Thanks for rewriting the codes...I faced this problem only from yesterday. I love the water babies background and get a lot of praise for that. Though your works are for Minima, I tweaked them a little the first round especially the header to fit the picture window template...your 2 column new code just fits seamlessly now. :)

Picasa on muuttanut kuvien lautautumis systeemiä. Jos haluat palauttaa saman sivupohjan takaisin oikeaan kokoon, niin sun on vaihdettava se vanha koodi uuteen korjattuun.

Valitettavasti sun pitää itse vaihtaa koodi sinne blogille. Mutta olen korjannut kaikki sivupohjakoodit, joten poista se vanha koodi sieltä gadgetista ja laita sen tilalle korjattu koodi.

Rikissa said...

No nyt sain korjattua tilanteen! Hurjasti kiitoksia :)

Jan said...

Thank you for your help. I didn't realize it wasn't only me. Maybe it is time to choose one of your new backgrounds but I sure love my trees.

Jan said...

I went to choose a new background and the first one I saw was Trees with Snow! so I chose that one, it was perfect! Thank you so much, it is on my blog now!

Anna Patricio said...

I too had this problem. My blog was fine until last weekend. So today i copied and pasted the new code and so far it seems OK.

I will observe further though, just in case it happens again.

However, before i fixed the problem, my blog looked fine on internet explorer but not on firefox. i wonder why.

Gina said...

Thank you so much...I love the background you let me use and was wondering what had happened :D XXX

Vicky Alberto said...

I just wanted to let you know that the royal template still does not work with the 2 column minima.

Vicky Alberto said...

kiitos jo etukäteen, jos löydät ongelman :)

Carole said...

Like many others, I've not been able to fix my background. I seem to be going in circles.

I love the work you do and appreciate you offering free backgrounds, thank you for that.

I've looked for the new code but so far no luck in finding it. Can you help?

Eija
Valitettavasti en voi korjata ongelmaa, vaan sun on itse nyt poistettava vanha sivupohjakoodi ja korvattava se uudella korjatulla koodilla. Olen korjannut kaikkien sivupohjien koodit. Eli kopio uusi korjattu koodi ja laita se sen vanhan koodin tilalle.

Itkupilli said...

Carole

I peeked to your blog and it looks fine.:)

Eija said...

Kiitos, yritän :)

Amo seu trabalho, e uso em meus blogs
seus backgrounds.
Recentemente tive problema com dois deles, mas segui suas instruções e já resolvi.
Faço um trabalho no estilo vintage, se puder me visitar e deixar um comentário, ficarei muito feliz.

Estou feliz que você resolveu o problema.

If you background is shrunken, you have to replace the old code with the new fixed one. I have fixed all the codes.

Hi, I have problem changing my background with the new blogger version. I tried to hit the button Edit HTML but a message came out:
Directly editing HTML may affect the way some features work and is only recommended for advanced users. Editing template HTML may unpredictably affect other Blogger features. We recommend using the Template Designer first, where you can Add CSS under the Advanced section.
I don't what to do from there.
Thanks and pls advise what should i do.

The easiest way to correct the problem, is to remove the old background code and replace it, with the fixed code, you can find the fixed code here:

http://itkupilli-cutencool.blogspot.com/2009/12/steampunk.html

*itKuPiLLi* said...

Ginger
oh, you are Ginder too, you can read the previous answer to an other Ginger, but you can find your fixed background code here:

You don´t have to make any changed to your blogs HTML-code. The background code is in a HTLM-Java Script gadget.

Find that gadget, looks like it´s in the top of your gadgets, remove the old code, and replace it with the new fixed code, and by the way, move the gadget in the bottom of the side bar, then the logo won´t be disturbing.

Your background´s fixed code is here:

Can you help me further? Ginger :)

Thank you so much for your solution.

bertie said...

HI...I tried to replace the code for my blog and it didn't work. Could you please help as I am supposed to be featured on a major artist's blog and need it to look in ship shape order! Thanks so much...I truly love my blog design and appreciate it! www.queenbartistry.blogspot.com

Itkupilli said...

Ginger
I checked the steampunk background and the code is fixed and correct. Make sure you have removed the old code and then add the new code.

The fixed code is here:

Bertie
I checked that code too, it is fixed and correct. Make sure you have removed the old code, the fixed code is here:

bertie said...

Hi again..sorry to bug you! I removed the old html and tried replacing with the new code and it only shows the fixed template for about 2 seconds and then reverts back to the shrunken one. Now I have no old html to remove..in fact, when I removed it the first time and checked the blog, it was still showing the shrunken one. I don't know what to do!! Help! bertie

Clairendelle said...

Hi- first of all, thank you for all that you do! I'm also having a problem with my background.

Please have a log when you get the chance.

Thanks,
Claire

Be Mine Teddy Bears said...

the exact thing happens for me... I cannot replace the background even when I completely delete the HTML.Javascript gadget > save > exit > view blog > still there.

Hi. Just to let you know this worked on my downstairs computer. I had to buy some more memory for my old upstairs computer and this worked fine. I really needed to get more memory because I couldn't update firefox and I believe that made the problem worse.

I just wanted to thank you again for all these wonderful backgrounds and for all your help.

Happiness and Abundance to ALL !

Hei! Blogissamme on samainen ongelma, ja yritin etsiä blogipohjaamme uusituista, mutta en vain löytänyt.. Etsin hakusanoilla "green", "simple abstract" sekä "simple romantic" eikä vain löytynyt. Onkohan blogipohjaa enää?

Kiitos avustasi!

Blogimme on tässä osoitteessa:

http://pohjalainenlahiruoka.blogspot.com/

Rannanjärven akat said...

Jouduimme laittamaan blogiin väliaikaisen taustan, mutta voin tarvittaessa laittaa sinulle edellisen koodin! Tähän se ei suostunut tulla.

Ja uutta tosiaan en löytänyt mistään vaikka kuinka selasin.. Olenkohan aivan sokea?

Rannanjärven akat said...

Anteeksi kun näin pommitan. Tässä se blogitausta jota en löydä:
