Red footer when images are disabled/not loaded

Issue Summary

Whenever I load the site, the footer block is red. When it finishes loading, it turns to the expected dark blue. I tried placing various blocks in the footer and they all start off red until page load is complete. On Safari and IE it happens after every refresh. On Firefox it only happens during the first load, or right after you empty the cache. Any idea why this is and how to fix it? (Besides that, I'm very happy with the theme. Thanks!)

Title:red footer» Red footer when images are disabled/not loaded
Status:active» fixed

Hi nickvu2,

This is due to the following in style.css:

#footer {

  ...
  background: #880000 url(images/footer.jpg) repeat-y ;

}

You can change that color to #616161, which is the gray of the whole background, and it will look the same as the header before images are loaded, or if the person browsing the page has disabled the images.

I have commited the change to CVS, as I also think it looks better like this.

So you can grab the latest dev when the package gets updated, or make the change yourself ;)

Thanks for the report, and I'm glad it's working out for you -- it's nice to see how people are using the template :D
