My understanding is the image is database driven and regenerated periodically (I think with the same link though). So a person viewing it over time will see it update per the US bureau of reclamation real time data: https://usbr.maps.arcgis.com/apps/dashboards/81aaec3e74024ce6b9a5e50caa20984e

Is it possible to embed the image URL in the CSS for the page header or sidebar such that the image is pulled from the USBR website? If so, is some example CSS available?

EDIT: For completeness, here is the CSS code I got from Ivan which worked for adding an image to the sidebar:

body .sbimg {

height: 200px;

background: url(%%YourPicNameHere%%) no-repeat center/contain;

}

[I found a particularly interesting image that is relevant to the deadpool sub. The image shows the current, average, and full water levels for Lake Mead. ](https://www.usbr.gov/lc/region/g4000/riverops/webreports/LakeMead.png) My understanding is the image is database driven and regenerated periodically (I think with the same link though).

Ok, thank you for the fast response. I'll check out poaldev

While it sounds like a good idea (if you ignore the tracking and possible doxing), you might also consider that many websites are blocking hot-linking. And in case they don't, but admins notice traffic coming from the same referrer targeting a single file, they might end up blocking poal or renaming the file.

10-4. I can use static images that I manually capture from time to time and then update the copy found in my sub css depository. I need to check out poaldev later for some actual examples. I've written some COM application automation in vb and python and a bit of java but never have messed with css stuff before.

The example is right below the sub’s image upload in the custom CSS section.
