I've been thinking about a way that I could offer a special Memorial and Remembrance to the heroes and lost loved ones of that tragic day we all call "9/11". Tragic it was - - beyond words. But it made our Country and bonds even stronger.
I decided the best way was to express myself through one of my favorite passions - - creativity.
I have created a background image that serves as a Memorial, and free to anyone who would like to add it to your site. You can see it live on http://jensocial.com
It should work for most websites. For Ning Networks, below is the code I'm using. Add to your Advanced CSS, at bottom. You can use scroll instead of fixed, if you want more of the image at bottom. I thought the fixed looked best on JenSocial. Also, if you use fixed, you may want to use repeat-y, instead of no-repeat.
CSS Code for 9/11 Memorial Background:
body {
background:url("https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/11385118?profile=original") no-repeat fixed center top #FFFFFF !important;
}
/* I needed to move my main body content down to show the title and some of the flag. */
div#xg.xg_theme {margin-top:40px!important;}
If you use it, I'd love to see your site, and know that the Memorial is running strong.

Hi Jen
It is very nice and i would love to honour the 9/11 Memorial on my site.But the code does`nt seem to work on my site.I use the design studio.
Best regards
Klaus
I have your back ground image and some of your well said words in a discussion thread.I hope it is allright Jen.
Otherwise I will of course delete it right away!

You are welcome to use the image in any way you like. Sorry it didn't work though. It should work with old and new studio.
Best,
Jen
Bon and Diane,
Sorry, was thinking it could be used easier than that. Well, as we all take a moment to remember and discuss, that's the point. =)
Best Regards,
Jen
Hi Jen
Maybe you can make 3 parts of the photograph.One for the header and one for the two sides.I guess i can put it in to my design studio then?
I really would like to honour the day of 9/11 on my site!
Hi Diana
It sounds good.Maybe you would let me borrow the photograph for the the day?
Hi Diane
Sorry to hear that.It would be an honour to support the States on the 9/11.Also because my country to have a bond to the US, because of the 9/11.
Klaus,
I looked, and wow, it would look better on your site than mine - - with all the wonderful white. Something is hiding it. Strange enough, I think it's the z-index (layer order) for the who's amung us, although a small image.
Best,
Jen
