Question: How do I make a background?

I mean technically you could put around all your text [*css-div="background-image:url('url.com/image.png');"] and then [*/css-div], without the asterisks. But I wouldn't recommend it because it's generally annoying when people do drastic style changes in every post of theirs.

Thank you, I'm in a RP, and I found a really cool background image. I guess this thread can be closed now.
Wait, nevermind, don't close this thread. It's not working.

I'm not sure what you mean; this is me testing the solution I found for you and seeing that it works for me.

Of course, you need a few lines to see the full image if it's kind of big.

It also tiles by default. You may want to look into CSS in general; that's the solution I gave you, and you can change particular parts about how the background works depending on how you code it.

Can you post the code as you used it on this thread and I can help you out? :)
 
Okay, so now I got it working. But first, I needed to find an image. After a few Google searches, I found one, which is the background behind this text. It is working now, but to find out how this worked, I had to copy and paste your previous post. After some trial and error, I found out wat the problem was, and fixed it.
Thanks for the help!
 
Also, if you are ever looking to resize your pictures so they are more in proportion with your posts in general, you can use this site:

www.resizeyourimage.com

I personally use this for all my picture-resizing needs. I then just upload them to Imgur, so if you ever need to fix the dimensions of a picture you should use that!

Or for reference, you could use the [CIMG] code to resize your images like this:



Code:
