                @piki no… your copy of custom.css said

                body {
                background-image : uurl(‘http://localhost:8080/sku.jpg. <<<<<<<<<—’);
                background-size: cover;

                }

                see the dot AFTER .jpg

                also, you need to move the image to some subfolder

                this worked for me(random jpg)

                body {
                    background-image : url('http://localhost:8090/config/scan-uuid.jpg');
                    background-size: cover;
                }

                    you will have to change/override the CSS for those…
                    in each module folder is the defined css (don’t change there, override in custom.css

                    if not there(same for every module), then examine the elements in the developers window elements tab

                        @piki see main.css for the defined colors and styles

                        if nothing there that works for you, then you have to define your own (in custom.css)
