I want to add a background to my blog on blogger, how do I do this?

I want the background to be a picture or scenery, where in the html code do I go to put this? Oh yeah and for those of you losers that brought up the help pages in blogger, I did read them.

  1. u ll c something like <body ....> put <body background="http://<<link of ur pic>>.jpg" ..... >
  2. you have got to edit the template. 1) After logging in from the dashboard select the name of the blog. 2) Click on Template. 3) I think you need to change a bady tag...something that looks like this body { background:#000; margin:0; padding:40px 20px; font:x-small "Trebuchet MS",Trebuchet,Verdana,Sans-Serif; text-align:center; color:#ccc; font-size/* */:/**/small; font-size: /**/small; }
  3. usually this can be done by changing the Style Sheet (CSS) of your blogger template. may be you can try these steps 1. login to your blogger account and go to your blog. 2. click on 'Template' tab 3. find the corresponding style-sheet for your blog background. 3.a. style-sheet are usually within html <head> section and enclosed with this tag <style type="text/css"> .... </style> 3.b. find something similar with this style-sheet definition body { ... background: url("http://www.blogblog.com/dots_dark/bg_minidots.gif"); ... } 4. chage the url inside that style-sheet definition to the url of your new background For this modification to work, you need to upload your new background to somewhere on the web or you can use something already available on the web.
