Backgrounds don't show in pages from template

Question

I made a template with backgrounds being controled by an
external CSS file; but when I make a page from the template, the
bgs don't show; anyone have an idea why?
the panel on the right sidebar
is supposed to have a drop shadow gif repeating on the y axis
I tried this in both an embedded style and with a style from
an external CSS file........can't seem to see the issue. Sometimes
I can see them locally but not when uploaded (making sure to upload
the CSS file, too)
Any help would be most appreciated.

Your images are in many different directories, so I'm
guessing you've
simply gotten mixed up where to find the above images - or
you actually
did neglect to upload them to the appropriate directories.
And the Web server, Apache/1.3.33 (Unix), is case-sensitive
for
filenames.
