Hi @LibertyJason ,

Try this.

Add your image.

  1. Go to Admin > Online store > Themes > Actions > Edit code

  2. Go to Assets folder, then “add a new asset”, “upload a file”

  3. The file name must match the file name you are using in the footer. Eg. download.png

Add the code below.

  1. Go to Admin > Online store > Themes > Actions > Edit code
  2. Go to Asset folder, and open the base.css file
  3. Add the code below.
footer {
 background-image:url({{ "download.png" | asset_url}} );
background-repeat:repeat-y,repeat-y;
background-position:left top,right top;
}
