I don't know which of the 4,248 possible reasons to pick.

Can you paste your CSS that defines the background image, and your HTML that
presents it into a reply?

Is this file actually in that location?

'images/pinstripe.gif'

Did you upload it?

(I wish you would post from the NNTP forum)

I don't think Monday was the issue here.

Glad you found your problem and nailed it, though. For what it's worth,
it's very likely you're able to cut down on much of your CSS by taking
advantage of inheritance. All those repeated font-family specifications,
for example, are probably unnecessary. Assuming these classes are attached
to HTML tags that fall within, say, the <body> tag, you could specify a
given font-family for the body element (or the "everything" element, * [an
asterisk]), then only specify font-families "down the way" if they need to
be different. Using inheritance in this manner cuts down on human error, at
least ... for example, when you need to update the font-family, you'll only
have to do it in one or two places, rather than dozens.
