Want to use your own background?



First you'll want to host your background image. I personally use Photobucket.com
It's a free image host :)
Once you upload your background image you'll want to copy the 'Direct Link' URL
Then....

Log in to Blogger,
Choose  New Template and choose "Minima" then go to "Layout" section, now click on "Edit HTML" link.
Then find this line:


body {
margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
text-align: center;
color: #fff;
background: url('http://www.................png') repeat;
font-family: arial,verdana,helvetica,tahoma,Sans-serif;
font-size: 100%;
width: 100%;
}
or

body {
background:$bgcolor;
margin:0;
color:$textcolor;
font:x-small Georgia Serif;
font-size/* */:/**/small;
font-size: /**/small;
text-align: center;
}

The code may not be exactly the same, so search/find for "background", by CTRL+F method, and check if it is the background: part of "Body {......"

Now change that background line section to like this:

body {
background: #000000 url(YOUR DIRECT LINK.jpg);
background-position: center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-attachment: fixed;
margin:0;
color:#333333;
font:x-small Georgia Serif;
font-size/* */:/**/small;
font-size: /**/small;
text-align: center;


**SAVE AND YOUR DONE**
