Banner doesn't show

akushnir

I believe I did everything correctly. Checked spelling and punctuation in the code. Put code in CSS section and header section. But no banner appears. ??
Thanks for any help.

Remove the s at the start

s#my_banner {
width: 750px;
height: 150px;
margin: 0 auto;
background: url(http://akushnir.smugmug.com/photos/158484874-O.jpg) no-repeat;
}

If you want your banner centered change the size to the actual image
as below.

#my_banner {
width: 600px;
height: 120px;
margin: 0 auto;
background: url(http://akushnir.smugmug.com/photos/158484874-O.jpg) no-repeat;
}

Thanks for the quick reply and where the heck the 's' came from I don't know.
My banner properties say it is 750px x 150px not the dimensions you indicated : 600x120. Why do we measure the jpg differently?

The original file that I dragged and dropped into the uploader is 750x150, so the one on the site has been reduced by 0.8. Why this would happen is something that experts might understand. Thanks for your help.
