Lets start with something simple.

Find a .jpg or .jpeg image on your computer to use for your background. It can be big, up to 900 x 900 pixels.

Then set background color and background main to "transparent".
Then click "save'

You should get two messages on the next page, something to the effect that your background image was uploaded, and that your profile settings have been updated.

For some reason, some background images won't take, I had to try several times to get one that would work.

Give this a try to start.

The other alternative is to write a style sheet, which takes a certain amount of expertise. Iceland is happy to help you. Send her a PM and she will help you create a style sheet so you can get your profile as pretty has hers is.
