Thanks,

The image needs to be as big as the
browser window you want to use it in.

You make the image large enough not to tile. Note: This is not a deficiency
of FrontPage; it's a characteristic of HTML.

Hi Sandra,
set up a css rule, eg
<style type="text/css">
body{ background: url(picture.jpg) fixed center no-repeat; }
</style>

This will put your image in the centre of the screen, non tiling and
non-scrolling - take out center if you like

There are two methods.

o Enlarge the JPEG canvas to at list 1600 x 1200. If
you don't enlarge the picture, but only add solid-color
border at the right and bottom, this won't impact
the picture's filesize very much.

o Remove the background= attribute from your <body>
tag, then add a CSS rule such as the following to
the <head> section of your Web page.

<style>
BODY { background-image: url("images/juggler.gif");
background-repeat:no-repeat; }
</style>

The second method is technically superior, but may work
incorrectly in older browsers.
