[TYPO3-english] Image Content Element as Body Background

Fri Jul 25 18:17:10 CEST 2014

Hi,

Thanks for your continued help. Let me clarify:
path/to/my/default/image.jpg won't work because I don't *have* a path to 
the image. All I know is that it's going to be some image content element 
that the use puts into the "left" column, from fileadmin. That's why I was 
thinking get left.

Am I missing something?
-Scott.
