Whatever the problem was is fixed. I suspect my CDN server (hosted through CloudFlare) was probably just running very slowly and hadn't yet cached the new image.

Either way, it seems to be working fine.

I wanted to change the + sign so it is a question mark rather than a +, and keep the x for closing it. Seemed easy enough--I created my own version of plus.png, and stored it in my child theme's folder, in an images subfolder. Actually, to be specific, I copied the entire images folder from B+M and uploaded it to my child theme folder, and then changed the copied plus.png to my own version. (It is exactly the same dimensions and transparency).

In my child theme's CSS, I have the following:

/*
Theme Name: PolicyGeek R3
Theme URI: http://dantrimble.com
Description: PolicyGeek is a custom WordPress template, this particular release built off Brick + Mortar from Chris Molitor.
Author: Dan Trimble
Author URI: http://dantrimble.com
Template: wpbm
Version: 3.0
*/

@import url(../wpbm/style.css);

#plusSign {position: absolute; width: 31px; height: 30px; right: 30px; top: 30px; z-index: 1000; background: url(images/plus.png) no-repeat left top; cursor: pointer;}
#plusSign.closeMe {background-position: bottom left}

Which of course is exactly the same as the original CSS file, but in this case, I would think images/plus.png should be pointing to child/images/plus.png, not the B+M theme's folder location. But it doesn't seem to be working.

What might I be doing wrong?
