[Pro] Blogger Actions...background showing through

When using the blogger actions to set up my blog on Blogspot, I followed the instructions, and everything got up and rolling just fine. But, when I posted the blog and viewed it on the web a couple of odd things happened.

First off, I have a site page with a background image. I drew a graphic box, chose a white background and then began drawing the blogger actions on top of that graphic box.

I chose preview, then back to the page, clicked on an action and hit the paste to clipboard.

I followed all the instructions at the Blogger site, pasted the code to the html layout section and all went well.

When I previewed the blogger parts they were there, but the but all the parts that were the blog parts were on top of the white, but the page background cut through the white graphic background, with the blogger action parts showing with the page background.

After I removed the page background and the graphic, the blog parts appeared normal, on a white background.

I’m asking if anyone knows why the page background cut through the graphic. Also, I had a rotating banner ad stack on the top with my company logo. In the blog, the rotating banner ads stopped. None of them appeared. They were gifs, set as layers with a layer action applied.

Any thoughts ?

Why did you draw the white background graphic box when you already had a background image? Was that solid white as well? If it’s a solid white color, make it a layered HTML item as to not cause a problem.

Do you have a URL to the blog in question?

I’m not sure about the banners not showing up, but I think I have an idea.

Dan,

Go to www.webandsound.com/wkvi.html, go under the Community Forums tab to the WKVI Discussion Board. This will link you to the blog page.

When you see that background that is on the rest of the WKVI pages, this is what I attempted to use as a background image on the page of the blog. When I posted the blog, I removed the background from that page as to not have it cut through the white box I wanted to have behind the posts of the blog.

You’ll see the rotating banner ads on the front page of the WKVI Site and this will be what is missing on the blog page.

Thanks for any help.
