Hi there Matt! :)

How can I contact you? I’ve tried to find some contact info for you on this site to no avail :(

Please let me know your most preferred way that people can write to you, as I’m so sorry, but I must have missed something on your site regarding your email info.

I’ve love what you’ve provided here for everybody and I’m very thankful to have found this resource for Thesis! Great Job!

Hope to hear from you soon!

Kindest regards,
Mark *****email – marxexec@gmail.com

hey Matt!
Thanx for the excellent tutorial! I’m not a big code person – a moderate understanding. If i want to color my backgrounds for both sidebars do I do two separate entries the second with a “.custom #sidebar_2″ designation? And while I’m here – is there a way to color the background of my comments section different from my page background and different from my sidebar backgrounds? I am using thesis and thesis hooks latest versions. Thank you!!!! Keep up the great work!

Great tutorial. I just implemented the sidebar background on my site, but I notice the background ends where the widgets end. Is there a way to get it to extend to the bottom of the page?

Yes. Do you have a one column or two column layout?

Hi Matt, I just found this tutorial and it’s great. I was also wondering if you know of a way to get the background to extend to the bottom of the page. I have a 3 column layout, with two sidebars – one on each side.
