Hi,

I have a total black background but I do have a special horizontal line that goes totally across (got help doing this). This background/graphic stuff is my biggest weakness.

I saw something I liked on another site and think it will fit my site…

I wanted to know how to make the “upper” part of my site with my lead black background like this site, then below a certain point, the rest white.

Here is the site that has it…

> **[Direct Mail | Easy-to-use email marketing app for your Mac](https://directmailmac.com/)**
>
> Mac software that makes managing your email marketing campaigns easy. No headaches. Just results.

here is mine right now…

> **[Hoffkids- An Innovative Math Experience For Kids Ages 10 To 12.](https://www.hoffkids.com)**
>
> Hoffkids is an innovative math experience for kids ages 10-12 and helpful for adults. The world's most visited classroom teacher's website created in 2003.

Thanks for any directions and if I can supply any current info, please let me know.!!!

Barry

Here is a quick example of what I think you are trying to get.

[http://www.deltadesign.co/fw\_examples/textoveracell.html](http://www.deltadesign.co/fw_examples/textoveracell.html)

This page uses a bg graphic set to tile Horizontal:Tile and Vertical:Top

The page background colour is white.

If you scroll down the page you will see the image I created in FW to achieve this.
