[Design] Pictures in the background

Ok, I'm relatively new to blogger, and totally clueless when it comes to web design. Unfortunately I didn't realize that by changing my background template this morning ALL customizations I'd made to my site vanished into the wind. What a bummer...
My site looks pretty boring right now..how do you put pictures in the background of your site, and in the background of the main title? A couple I've found sweetnicks and oranges are free do a great job of this...
Please help!

Mona, I don't know what software you are using or which is your blog. But try taking a look at these past posts on the subject.

Mona: Thanks for the compliment! I am forever working on my template and for me, being very non-techy, it is truly trial and error. For the pictures in my banner, I posted the picture on flickr, and then put the url into the appropriate place in my template. If you need further help than that, I can forward you the right place for the code. Hope this helps!

Thank you Amy and Sweetnicks!
I really appreciate the words of wisdom. I noticed the "banner crisis" post from about a week ago and kind of tried teaching myself from that. Now I'll look at those other 2 you gave me Amy, thanks so much!
Sigh...it's Sunday night :(
