  1. Try this: <style type="text/css"> { Background Properties } table, tr, td { background-color:transparent; border:none; border-width:0;} body {background-image:url('IMAGE URL HERE');background-attachment: fixed;background-position:repeat;}</style> You need to image host the background picture. I use: http://imageshack.us Copy and past the URL into where I typed: IMAGE URL HERE. Make sure to leave the apostrophes in place. If you wish to have the background image scroll along up and down the page, change where it says "fixed" to "scroll". In the "fixed" position, the background picture does not move, only the text does.
  2. there is a bg right now...but i had to take the > off the end of the link. sometimes depending on the server the extenstion of the picture needs to be in the same case ie. pic.JPG might not work because the file itself is pic.jpg . i have this problem on occasion. but i really dont know since i can see a bg and don't know your source code.
  3. The most common error here is missing a quote. Followed by misspelling. Do your own work, and remember to validate with w3.org's validator. http://validator.w3.org/
