Explain more please?    I don't know what you mean by "second code"  ?  The Guide shows you how to edit your css to add a background image.
You dont add a code there,  you have to edit the exisitng code.

That should work fine.    Make sure to reload your browser after making changes to the css - you wont see the changes until you do so.    Forum url?    We need you to post it when asking for help.

is it a good cpu?   Ill run over with my catchers mitt  Wink

j/k    will take a looksee and see whats up..  the way you did the code works fine.  

I can see the background image on your forum.

If the issue is you want it fullscreen you need to enlarge the image.  The css can not enlarge it for you.  It does not support stretching a background image.
