First you must have a background image (.jpg) stored on a personal webspace somewhere.
Then when you submit (or edit) your cache page:
In the 'Long Description' of your submittal form, include this tag: <BODY BACKGROUND="http://<personal webspace>/<image>.jpg"> - where "http://<personal webspace>/<image>.jpg" is the webb address of your image.
Be sure the checkbox that says 'The descriptions below are in HTML', just above the 'Short Description' is checked.
That should do it.
If you have problems with the image address, just post and we can tell you more specifics.

phat.bak did a good job.

I do however upload the image to GC.com on the cache page and then reference it after it is there.
That way, no dependencies to my personal website in case it moves, etc.
If they can get to the cache page, they will definitely get the background.

Thanks for the help I got it to work after realizing it had to be added at the end of the description. When I put the code in first it would totally mess up the page.
Thanks Again.
