Author different colored background?

okay, I've posted a ghost page for this so it's ultra easy:
http://galzmagazine.com/ghost.html

I'm wondering if instead of the black background, if I can keep the flow of
the two different gray colors going on in the very back? This has to be easy
right? I've been poking around in some css tuts, but nothing yet.

Thank you!

Hi

It is not easy due to screen size which is why most backgounds are tiled. In
CSS youi can have an image repeating on either the x or y axis. In your
case it means that on say 800*600 it's ok but on 1024*768 it's like a zebra
skin.

maybe i'm missing something really basic but i can't seem to drag off the
background image in order to have that .gif

I see the diff. in the code, but i'll need that image for the reference to
work.

gracias.

<body onload="preloadImages();" style="background:url(bkgtile.gif) repeat-x;
margin: 0; background-color: #333333;">

That would make the image http://www.murraytestsite.com/bkgtile.gif

Now you have it.
