Yeah, I can't find it.. but it has to be hard coded into the website somehow?

That's why we're nagging you to learn some CSS! :lol:
From the stylesheet:
nav ul {
/*background: url(../images/nav_bar_bg.png) repeat-x;*/
background:#bfa21e;
border: 2px solid #fff;.......

@Eric thanks for the hint Eric, I activated the new link by removing the notes /* , and it still isn't inserting the images.
@paintbrush Thank you paintbrush, i'm going to try and learn some new codes or snippets. I'm sorry I don't catch on as fast as others, but I am trying my best!

If you are saying it is not inserting the image that was greyed out, even after you activated it, take a look at the actual image in the images folder. You will see that it is exactly like what was achieved with a bit of yellowish colour and two white borders.

Mat, I've been saying a couple of times now that you should start with a SIMPLE website - from scratch. It may be a bit more boring than the gaming sites you are creating, but if you do everything yourself, html, css and not more than that (no scripts) to begin with, you'll train your skills for more advanced stuff by and by. There is an apprenticeship to be served by most things. We all started with taking small steps, nobody can be a 'world champion' overnight. :)

No.. I don't have any idea of what's going on. The images in my folder have been changed from yellow to blue, the same color as the birds. I have the images uploaded on the website, i'm going to see if I can't post a link here in a couple seconds because i'm re-uploading the site. It should just be two blue bars, no more yellow. Ah man, a link would require username and pw.. I have the site hosted at host gator..

Here is a preview of what i'm looking at right now.. the code has been altered to reflect the image in CSS. It just isn't recognizing a new file, or searching for it. I've uploaded the latest of my website and it's reading a different code than what has been changed.
