Start by getting an image editor. I recommend Paint.NET. Then, create your image. If you need help with that, I can help.

Next, save you image as either a gif or a png, but I'd recommend gif.

Now, do you want that as the background to your entire site, or to just one part?

For the entire site, put this in your header:


Code:
<style>

body {
background-image: url('yourpicture.gif');
}

</style>


Replace that yourpicture.gif witht he ocation of your image in relation to where the file is it will be the background of (you can put that in your CSS as well).

If you need any more help, post again.

Images are really different from HTML - basically dogs and cats. There are thousands of websites that offer (background) images - they might be easier than learning how to create one.
