Adding Background Images

[JamesT]

How do i assign the body background to a link to a picture to it is set to a background. I tryed entering in the url but keeps getting "url is not a valid CSS". anyone?

In the CSS section of the admin panel, within the "Extra CSS Attributes" of the body form. Something like this:

background: url('images/yourimage.jpg') no-repeat top left;

Hint & Tip of the Day:

If you want to apply a background image to category titles or tables, etc.

Goto the box that handles the tag and behind the background color, add url('path/file.jpg') and it will have both a purdy background color and then renders the image for you.

You will actually have to re-define the background color inside the "extras" box

background: url('images/tile.gif') repeat-x top;
background-color: #E9EBF0;
