    Umm, I may be missing stuff, but generally you put images into a website with the <img> tag...

    You can use a table and set the image as its background

    Personally i would use CSS

    Code:
    <head>

<style type="text/css">
body 
{
background-image:
url('2_BB.jpg')
}
</style>

</head>

    I aggree, it is what I did for the banner at my site.

    Code:
    <style>
#logo {
	background-image: url(web/title.png);
	height: 100px;
	width: 800px;
	border: 1px solid #000000;
	margin: auto;
}
</style>
<body>
<div id="logo"></div>
</body>
    That way the whole thing is done is CSS and the HTML is just 1 small div.
    Actually, Looking over my site, More than half of it is done is CSS.

    Err Not quite, You cannot use one without the other.
    You need to learn both in order to make a good site.
