Bit of css help plz

[iMage]

i am trying to add a background image to my site atm.. i want to keep the current bg color,just want this image to appear in teh upper left corner (as shown in screenshot)



This is the css bit i need to use for adding it.. as you will see in this example simply adding background-image: url(path/image.png) doesnt seem to work.

body {
    background-color: #2F2F4F;
    background-image: url(templates/alpha/images/bg.png);
    font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode","Lucida Grande",sans-serif;
    font-size: 14px; 
    padding: 0px;
    margin: 0px;
} 

thanks for your help

please no replys of "use google" etc in my thread,offensive posts will be reported

Shorten it all to

body { 
background: #2F2F4F url('templates/alpha/images/bg.png') no-repeat top left;
font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode","Lucida Grande",sans-serif; 
font-size: 14px;  
padding: 0px; 
margin: 0px; 
}

there are few things you can do
first try something like

background: #2F2F4F url(templates/alpha/images/bg.png) no-repeat left top;

try this depending on ur image size it will display on right top, if you have any live link that will help more to understand.

Edi:Mr Happy you beat me to it

ya but you corrected my mistake in the rush. I had top left instead of left top. Not sure if mine would work right.

But anyway it's worked and iMage is happy
