Mustapha,
There are several different factors. It depends on size/resolution of image. Your image has to have the exact same width in the center area, etc...

Here's the code they use:

body {
background-attachment:fixed;
background-color:#000000;
background-image:url("yourimage.jpg");
background-position:center top;
background-repeat:no-repeat;
}

Well the actual background can be laid in the css...
but I am not sure if you are talking about the background of the site.. or the background on the body which is where the modules are placed.. this would be a two part command.. if you let me know exactly what effect you are trying to accomplish I can give you the code string to make it happen..:)

I think he has a background similar to thisis50, and just wants to install in a similar way. Which in that case, the code I gave is exactly what's needed.
Thanks for your input, much appreciated.
Best Regards,
Jen

Oh no, no problem. I think you might get a response and he will need your advice. I think it's awesome that you reached out with a helping hand. Thank you very much.

Sometimes I write so many replies, emails, etc...I come across the wrong way. Forgive me if I did that earlier - - sure didn't mean to.

Have a nice evening,
Jen
