Can anyone running desktop Safari tell me if they see any pictures here?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I see 2 pictures, but I had to reload the page to get them to show up (when it first loaded, it was only the text).

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I just see the eye. Reloading doesn't change anything, except I saw some image flash very quickly.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
I had the same issue on Safari for iPad. If I arrow to the right, I see the guy walking the dog. Then arrow left, back to the linked page, I get a brief flash of a picture. Building and scaffolding?? But then it disappears.
I do see the Eye at the top. It's half Gatsby like. Just need the glasses. Or Sauron?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I could use some help. I'm doing some emergency work for a website, and trying to figure out what controls the background of this page.
Looking at the style sheet (here), it seems like it would be controlled by the bit under * Gradient Background *, but I've tried changing that to no effect, and it also looks like it's somehow related to the sidebars? Which is not what I want to change at all.
I didn't do this install or theme, so I'm at a bit of a loss.

It's in black_red.css, line 10:
#container { background: #f4f4f4 url(black_red/bgtile.jpg) repeat-x top left; }

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Then why does it appear as a gradient? And in case I'm using the wrong terminology, I don't mean the background of the text boxes, but the overall page background.
(And I am HUGELY grateful for your help, Mr. Scola.)

The background tile image it points to (black_red/bgtile.jpg) is a gradient.

Ohhhhh. Which is not something I can override, and I don't think I can edit that image or that style sheet. Hell.
Thanks again, Tom.

hip deep in pie
My computer went kablooey, so I am in the market. Any recommendations? It'll be used mainly for light word processing, surfing, and to watch stuff. Toshiba used to be recommended as a reliable brand, is that still true?
Since I lost all my media in the crash (most of it recoverable from other places/discs) and since my S.2 TiVo is becoming more unreliable in talking to my computer, I'm thinking of also getting something kind of media streaming device. I'm thinking of the Roku3 or the WD TV Live. Anyone have experience with those?
(I'm more interested in being able to get video from my computer to my TV, than watching streaming media on my TV, though that's nice too. It's just outside of sneaky VPN moves, I don't have a lot of access to streaming services in Canada.)
