background: #290e2a;
background: rgb(33, 7, 34) -moz-radial-gradient(center top, circle farthest-side, rgb(130, 77, 132) 0%, rgb(33, 7, 34) 100%) no-repeat;
background: -webkit-gradient(radial, 50% 0%, 0, 50% 0%, 1000, from(rgb(64, 38, 65)), to(rgb(33, 7, 34)));
}
#container {
min-height: 100%;
background: url(purple/stripe-thick.png) scroll repeat;
