Headline Updated to v1.6.1
A new update to the Headline theme has been approved by Tumblr and should now be live on all standard installations.
v1.6.1 fixes a bug with the background image CSS style that would cause background images to repeat, even when the Tile Background Image toggle button was not selected in the Appearance panel. Thanks to Mark for the heads up!
This can be achieved using custom CSS. The header, sidebars, and post are contained within a “.wrap” selector. Setting a background color property on that selector via custom CSS will fill those sections. For example, if you’d like to have a white background, use:
.wrap {background:#fff;}
If you’d like to adjust the left, middle and right columns individually, you may use the “#sidebar”, “#primary” and “#secondary” selectors respectively.
