Hello,
I was wondering if anyone can help me solving an issue with ma github page. I want to display a background picture called "bg.jpg" but it does not show. It might be something related to the path in my css but I just cannot figure out what the problem is

I checked similar posts that related to case sensitivity of the picture file ending etc. but did not manage to solve the problem myself.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Its named bg1.jpg in your images folder. Try that. 👍🏻

Actually, you have two different background images in your images folder. bg1.jpg and bg.JPG
Just use the correct one.

I know, I want to have bg.jpg as background (i.e., the picture of a moss), I specified the name accordingly but it is still not working. But thanks for the comment anyways

Okay. Your image is named bg.JPG
If you rename the image to bg.jpg
it should work, uppercase and lowercase matters.

thanks so much that was it. It is weird as the name displayed in lower case on my computer.
