I guess you're turning the background off without turning it back on. Easy mistake.

Its a complete mini example. Its not designed to place into your code. Your going to have to use your noggin to translate it to your own code.
Im trying to show you in a mini example how things should go. If you cant apply yourself in that regard perhaps you have bitten off more than you have learned so far.
