I know there are a few forums on this but nothing seems to help my problem I'm not gonna lie and say I know some basic scripting because I don't. I simply just want to know how I can put a background on one of my pages not gobal or anything complicated and yes I do use advanced mode however despite the tries with the sources and pre-made background script nothing works and I'm kinda really amped to continue on but with knowing I can set a mood with the background.

I already have my pictures loaded and I don't know if I'm suppose you use the scripting option or can I just continue on using just the advanced mode. I don't have any other scripts running nor will I have nearing the future I just want to know how to set a background for one page so I know how to do it for others when I want different backgrounds. Thanks for the help!

Just to make it easier if you are copy and pasting this, here is the version with the <>'s. 

$PAGETEXT := "<style>body{background: url('http://chooseyourstory.com/resources/images/user/XXXX');}</style>" + $PAGETEXT

Hah..Thanks for the help really I appreciated though I have one more request could you guys give me recommend place to learn how to script on this site specifically or some tips I'm really interested and learning and since those 3 months I know some basic stuff. 

Anyways thanks for the help if you don't have any recommendations then that's okay!

The Help and Info page has a bunch of articles about scripting. It's a good place to start.

Thanks

Killa_Robot, is there a way to make it so that your image doesn't repeat itself to fill the screen? (Like a quilt.)

Thanks.

I know it's been a while, but this code works really well for no repeating. And it also helps the picture not look stretched.

$PAGETEXT := "<style>body{background: url(??????) no-repeat center center fixed; 
  -webkit-background-size: cover;
  -moz-background-size: cover;
  -o-background-size: cover;
  background-size: cover;
}</style>" + $PAGETEXT

Thanks for contributing new knowledge!

No problem.
