I have no clue. :lol: :P
I think your best place to ask would be at the
InvisionFree Skin Zone Forums. They know all about creating skins there. :wink:

HTML:
<BODY background="*PLACE IMAGE URL HERE*">
If you want the image fixed use this...
<BODY background="*PLACE IMAGE URL HERE*" bgproperties="fixed">
CSS:
<style type='text/css'>
body{
background: url(*INSERT URL HERE*)
}
</style>
And Fixed...
<style type='text/css'>
body{
background: url(*INSERT URL HERE*)
}{
background-attachment:fixed;
}
</style>
I suggest using the css code if you're planning to have the GB fixed since it'll probably work on both Firefox and IE.
Of course I own a proboards account and not an invisionfree so I wouldn't really know exactly if those codes would work, but they should.

Oh my. Uhhh... I don't have an invision page(like I said before) but there should be a page where you can do modifications. There should be an admin only editable section. Look for something that would say "modifications" or something similar. Go into that area and there "should" be a white area where you can add your own codes to edit your forum. Add the codes you need to and submit or update it.
If it doesn't show up right away go back to your main page and refresh. If it doesn't show up at that point, then either theres a table blocking the background image or the code didn't work at all.
If you're still having problems after that I'll chefck out some invision sites and see exactly how thier forum customization system works.

This is where they go:
1. Go to the Admin CP.
2. Click on Board Wrappers under Skinning & Styles in the left hand margin.
3. You'll see a page with several white boxes. Look for the white box next to Header & Body..
4. Copy this:
| QUOTE |
| <BODY background="*PLACE IMAGE URL HERE*" bgproperties="fixed"> |
5. Paste it into the white box next to Header & Body.
6. Click on the Edit Wrapper button at the bottom of the page.
7. Look at the left hand margin again. Now click on Manage Style Sheets under Skinning & Styles.
8. Copy this:
| QUOTE |
<style type='text/css'>
body{
background: url(*INSERT URL HERE*)
}{
background-attachment:fixed;
}
</style> |
9. Paste it into the large white box on that page.
10. Click on the Edit CSS button at the bottom of the page.
That should be it! :huggle:

Yay! That saves me some work. Thank you. =)
And I was actually thinking about making an invision account to see how it works. >.O;
