You were right it was that.

Can anyone tell me how to make CSS images work for themes?

Thanks!

You can show images with css this way:
(We assume your image is in "myurl.com/packages/my_theme/images/example.jpg" and your css file is in "myurl.com/packages/my_theme/style.css")

Relative urls
#my_div  {
    background: url("images/example.jpg") no-repeat top left;
    width: 200px; /*you can set the width of your image here*/
    height: 200px; /*you can set the height of your image here*/
/*but remember your widht and height should usually match your original image's width and height*/
}


Absolute urls
#my_div  {
    background: url("http://myurl.com/packages/my_theme/images/example.jpg") no-repeat top left;
    width: 200px;
    height: 200px;
}


Note: to show an image that is one dir up you just put one "../" at the beginning of the path like this "../images/example.jpg". I know this is very basic, but some people don't know it, we should respect them too.
