Following the video from cloudaccess on how to add a background image is no longer valid. Modifying template.css does nothing as index.php is overriding it. Awesome sauce so I continue building until I go to change the template color and background color through the template editor in Joomla. As soon as I hit save and refreshed the site bam no background image anymore.
I had written the code background-image:url../(images/grungy.jpg) in both the template.css (did nothing) and the index.php (worked until this change). Looking at the inspector both entries were crossed out. My background came back with the removal of the code from the index.php making me believe the template.css was reverted back to controlling this feature not the index.php.
I don't understand why this happened and I'm beginning to think as long as it works it works. I still unhappy not having any understanding how or why this control flipped from template.css to index.php. While I'm not trying to master css or code I hate feeling like the magic happens or it doesn't.
Basically I know what I need for this issue now I can comment things out of index.php and add things as well, as long as it works it isn't broken.
