I am not sure of what you are trying to do here. However if you do a View Source at my site below, I believe that you will see how I did mine. If it is in the CSS part, which I do not use, just put the background first before anything else, especially before the center code.
My site below under Internet Talk also offers many hints for using HTML as well as let you test drive them before committing them to your page.
Hope this helps
