According to Dreamweaver, this is what is causing the issue:

<?php

add_action('thesis_hook_footer', 'my_custom_footer');

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

What you are dealing with is simply not being proficient in CSS. I recommend downloading <a href="http://getfirebug.com/" rel="nofollow">Firebug</a> and reading some CSS tutorials. That will get you on the way ;) Also, I don’t think that it is Thesis that is the issue. What you are dealing with is simply not being proficient in CSS.

She has no clue about this stuff and while I have a little experience with pre-made themes, I have never attempted building one basically from scratch. Though it would be just a little more easy with Thesis than it is turning out to be. I made this site for my friend too. Guess I over-reached. Thanks for the reply.

However, I added .custom #footer { background: url(images/footer.jpg) no-repeat; }to my custom.css in Thesis and while my image did indeed appear at the bottom of page where the footer area is, it was reduced in size. The graphic is 1600px width 121 px height ( original size ) When it shows up on my site, it is very very small and thin and does not match the padding of my background graphic. I hope I am making this clear. I will list a couple of sites I found that use a graphic at the bottom of their Thesis Themed sites the way I am trying to do with my site as an example. I can not seem to figure out how to allow internet access via my router using local machine so you could see what happened, that is another issue all together, but if you are of the mind, please look at these two sites and what they have done at the bottom footer area and you will see exactly what I am attempting to accomplish.
