Default Background image in posting screen

Hello

I just changed skins to the Sandstorm skin, and I am having trouble getting an image in the background of the posting screen.

I followed the instructions here but it doesn't seem to work.

This is the Style sheet screen before I changed it:

And after:


I would really appreciate any help you can give me.

I can tell you what the correct CSS is, but it takes time to write it of an image. Can you post that section of CSS here in text?

this is the text where I *think* I'm supposed to change it. It looks like this before changes:

.forminput, .textinput, .radiobutton, .checkbox {font-size: 11px;font-family: verdana, helvetica, sans-serif;vertical-align: middle;}

and after I added the line as indicated in the instructions it looked like this.(the red is what I added). Do the spaces or commas make a difference? I really appreciate your help. Thanks!

.forminput, .textinput {background-image: url(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/0803/cindilu2/5901Bflipped.jpg)} , .radiobutton, .checkbox {font-size: 11px;font-family: verdana, helvetica, sans-serif;vertical-align: middle;}

Correct CSS.

.forminput, .textinput, .radiobutton, .checkbox { font-size: 11px;font-family: verdana, helvetica, sans-serif;vertical-align: middle; background-image: url(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/0803/cindilu2/5901Bflipped.jpg); }

.radiobutton, .checkbox { font-size: 11px;font-family: verdana, helvetica, sans-serif;vertical-align: middle;}
