# Adding a Background Image or Watermark

To add a background image or a watermark to your template, you’ll need to insert a small block of CSS styling into your document’s `<head>` section.

### Implementation

Copy and paste the code block below. This snippet ensures your image remains centered, fixed in place, and doesn't repeat across the page.

```
<style type="text/css">
  body {
    background-image: url("https://your.image.url");
    background-attachment: fixed; 
    background-position: center; 
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-size: 400px; /* Adjust size as needed */
  }
</style>
```

### Quick Tips for Best Results:

* Image URL: Replace the placeholder URL with the direct link to your hosted image.
* Sizing: The `background-size` property is set to `400px`. You can change this to `cover` if you want the image to fill the entire screen, or adjust the pixel count to fit your watermark's design.
* Opacity: If the image is too bold and makes the text hard to read, you may want to use a pre-faded image file (PNG) for a true "watermark" effect.
