Thanks for displaying my site baseline_shift, I'm honored. To embed flash I used swfobject a javascript library that I host on my own server and load remotely onto the Cargo through the custom html form under Settings. Hope that helps.

there are also differences in the templates. some of them have a stationary header image. you might want to go to that.
what i did was make a large header image, and set the z-index to 1
- I figured it out. Thanks.CygnusZero4

Yeah this is a pain. Apparently there's nothing in the CSS actually pointing to a BG image. It must be handled in the underlying page code. Whenever I try to put a position:fixed anywhere it locks all pages down and they dont scroll.

well, you seem to have changed your tune concerning cargo
- Didnt know you could customize it so much. I said that in the other thread, and the CMS is the big selling point.CygnusZero4
- yeah, its pretty nice man. Really customizable. And easy to work with. You can go from pshop right to the browser.baseline_shift
- Yeah I was just judging it from a few sites I saw which had all options turned on. A bit messy.CygnusZero4

Hey baseline, I just checked your page and see you have a stationary background image. How did you do that?
- give it a fixed position in the css.baseline_shift
- And where did you put the code for the background itself? In the body tag at the top?CygnusZero4
- you upload it in the admin section.baseline_shift
- I know, I just dont know where to put the position:fixed code. If you put it in the body tag it doesnt let any of the pages scroll.CygnusZero4
- i dont remember exactly offhand. you have to look through the css and find the code that points to the bgbaseline_shift

- Yes, I know some have it, I just dont know how to handle the hosting issue.CygnusZero4
- yea, me neither... :-/baseline_shift

ive seen a bunch of vimeo vids imbedded in cargofolios.
not sure about the flash
- Like I said you can embed them, but if you connect your domain to your cargo, you no longer have external hosting to use.CygnusZero4
- you can do a subdomainbaseline_shift
- You mean buy another domain and use that with the old hosting?CygnusZero4
- nah. Like www.cygnus.cargo.com… instead of cygnus.combaseline_shift

I noticed most cargo sites dont have any motion vids, or even any flash movies embedded in their pages.
I'm assuming this because cargo wont host them as they do the images. I do know you can embed them but they need to hosted elsewhere.
My question is, if you connect your domain to your cargo account, obviously your old hosting is useless with no domain connected to it, so how do you make all this work if you want to get some vids and flash work up there?
