Time for action—Repeating images horizontally and vertically

To repeat an image horizontally and vertically, just put the value repeat after the background-repeat property and separate the values with a colon.

body {
  background-color: white;
  background-image: url('../img/myimage.jpg) 
  background-repeat: repeat-x: repeat-y;
  font-size: 11px;
  font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;
  color: #5d717e;
  text-align:center
}
