I have seen that done in other posts but I don't know how to save it and have you look at it. I would also like to know if I am making my own template where in the html would I put a background html? would I put it at the end or the beginning like before the title? or does it matter??
Not having the tag at all should produce the message.
Use copy and paste to transfer all the HTML code from the template editor window to the practiceboard window and use the see HTML button to get a display and a link. Copy and paste the link back to the Forum. There is a sticky thread at the beginning of this section of the Forum that gives more detailed instructions for the process.
Backgrounds can be done with several techniques. Probably the safest method is to create a table frame for the entire template (description section of listing) and use the background CSS inline Style attribute on the table. Other methods might not survive the new eBay coding standard (in development) and new announced page layout. Here's a sample of code for style and where it's placed:
<table width=100% border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center"
style="background-image: url('http://----your image URL goes here----')" >
