I have a JPEG, (roughly 1024 x 768) which I want to use basically as the background to a site. How do I overlay the rest of my page components on top of this JPEG

?

ummm... use it as a background image??? What is in the image - are you trying to line things up directly on top of it or not? Do you want it to repeat or not? Are you talking about that wordpress blog you've got or something else?

no no its not the Wordpress blog I have,

its an image, that I want as the main background for the site, with everything over the top. I tried specifying it as a background image within my CSS file, but it doesnt work
