Time for action—Using image with no repetition

If you do not want an image to be repeated, just put the value no-repeat after the background-repeat property and separate them with a colon.

To avoid repetition of the image, you will need to insert the following lines:

body {
  background-color: white;
  background-image: url('../img/mylargeimage.jpg)
  background-repeat: no-repeat;font-size: 11px;
  font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;
  color: #5d717e;
  text-align:center
}

Normally, this applies for larger background images.
