Background Image

CSS background-image

The background-image property designates an image to be utilized as the background of an element.

By default, the image is tiled to cover the entire element.

Example

Apply a background image to a page.

body {
background-image: url(“paper.gif”);
}

Example

This example presents an unfavorable pairing of text and background image, resulting in poor readability of the text.

body {
background-image: url(“bgdesert.jpg”);
}

Please be advised: When employing a background image, ensure that the image does not disrupt the legibility of the text.

You can also assign a background image to specific elements, such as the <p> element.

Example

p {
background-image: url(“paper.gif”);
}

The CSS Background Image Property

Property	Description
