Hi, I'm a really new person to HTML and such. I'm trying to create a stud thread for my king once he's completed, and I was trying to use a free premade HTML, but for some reason adding a background to the code just isn't working. At first I thought it was because the original link to the background was from imgur, so I swapped it to postimg, but it didn't fix it. So I tried to make an HTML from scratch and while I do get the boxes working since I'm just using basic code, I can't seem to figure out how to add a background to sit behind everything.

What's the coding to add one? Thanks!

What's the current coding that you're trying to use? :0
I'm p sure the usual html would be (as confirmed by a few sites)

<*style>
body {
background-image: url('IMG-URL-ENDING-IN-.PNG/.JPG/ETC');
}
*style>

without the *

edit: this thread might assist you!

I was attempting to use the "Starry Mountains" one from this thread: https://www.lioden.com/topic.php?id=304429402910
When I put the code into the forum thread, it does add all the boxes and such, just no background. But I'll definitely try the coding you sent, thanks!

I did follow that thread but it wasn't working either, not sure why :(

The coding on that thread hasn’t been updated, every single one of them has a background that doesn’t work unfortunately. I found out the other day after trying to use 3 of them!

Darn, that really sucks. I was able to download the background used by just plucking the image from the code, so I'm trying to figure out how to re-add it, essentially lol
