Fair enough. I use Gimp to make them 60% transparent so it doesn't
distract from the info. Wanted to try, and if I don't like it, I won't
use it.

Hi John, I don't have plans right now to include that level of
customization with the base theme because I'll never be able to keep
everyone happy :)
You can make your own watermarks, or background changes if you want on
your own install though! Edit the skins/Belchertown/style.css and on
line 12 is for HTML, you can add your background there just like you
did for your about page.
Restart weewx, and wait for the archive generation to copy the updated
CSS to your site.
The problem is - as you'll see in the attached image example - is that
the main container's background is all white because you want to be
able to read text and see images on the site. Having a busy background
can distract from the info. The container of the website is 1200px
wide and gets smaller as your screen gets smaller (mobile screen,
etc). So for example you could get fancy with a background that has a
1200px center section "missing" then your sidebar areas could have the
background you're looking for.
Hope this helps.

BTW, if you look on my weather page ( weather.w0avq.org
<http://weather.w0avq.org> ) and click on "about" you can see what
I mean about a "watermark" for the site. Was just thinking out
loud that it would be nice to do if it weren't too much of a hassle.

Would be convenient to have it on the "front page" with the
"normal" temp.

Hi John
I see wind chill on your charts/graphs, were you looking to have
it someplace else?

Just a query asking if it is a setting I missed, but I see no
wind chill display. Secondly, and this is just a thought from
a cosmetic standpoint, but the possible inclusion of a
background "watermark" for aesthetics. (snow for the winter,
etc) Thought I had it accomplished on my reports but every
ftp update wrote over my changes (sigh). Still and all, I am
quite satisfied with how weather.w0avq.org
<http://weather.w0avq.org> looks.

Glad to hear all the positive feedback! All your sites look
great - but I could be biased :)
