HEY!, I need to know how you make a dang back ground! i mean, you know how you go to those sites with a background image that looks like a template? kind of like the "Stone hendge looking things in... UTURNWEBDESIGNS.COM How do i make that?
Also, i kind of got there but then it was like repeating so it looked like crap.
So three things...
1. how do i add an image to the background with out it repeating.
2. what is a good program for creating web templates? ( that way the background will already be there)
thx-grant

You can add the following bit of CSS to the <head> of your page:

<style media="all" type="text/css">
html, body {
background-image: url(bg.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center;
}
</style>

And then replace bg.gif with the path to your image. For more information, read the CSS Background Images overview at HTML Dog.

For creating web templates, you could either do it by hand (with a text editor) or with a WYSIWYG editor. Read this article for the low-down.

Dreamweaver would probably be your best choice if you choose the WYSIWYG, otherwise I use Notepad.
