Backgrounds with Images

There are different ways of doing Backgrounds. Everyone feels more comfortable with different codes. The most commonly used are the basic HTML and CSS. The CSS is more advanced but will allow you to customize your page better.

Here is a Basic HTML code (for an Image Background):

<bodybackground="yoururl/nameofthebackground.gif">


Here is an example of CSS:

<style>
body {background-image: url("yoururl/imagename.gif");
background-attachment:fixed;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:center;}
</style>

There are many possibilities & many different ways you can have your CSS coded background. First know if you want it to tile or repeat. If you want it fixed or not and where you want the background positioned (center, right, left). You are really going to have to mess with this code to see what you like. Every background image is different and may look better repeating than fixed and vice versa.


Backgrounds with Solid Colors (no Image)

For backgrounds that are just solid colors you will need to know the color information. You can certainly type in "pink" or "white" but there are many web safe colors you can use. Chances are you will need to get the hexadecimal value of a specific color. Do a search for Web Safe Color Chart to get these values. Once you found a color you like use one of the codes below.

HTML:

<body style="background:#000000">


CSS:

<style>
body { background-color:#000000; }
</style>
