Hi, i'm trying to add a background image to my blog content block. I've tried many of the codes from other questions including the one below but cannot get an image to populate. I don't want the image to include on my header or footer just the blog block unlike the one below. Can anyone offer assistance?

Thank you! One last request for the blog block.

If I wanted to stretch the blog content box to the footer so there wasn't any background showing between the content box and the footer what code would I apply?

It looks like you changed password. Can you check?
