I'm looking for a simple free website tile background like the one here: websitebabble.com. anyone know where I can find one? Also, I need one that has a plain white middle portion because that's where the text goes and I want the background to be white for that area.

- Thanks

    this is the background from websitebabble http://www.websitebabble.com/images/misc/wbBG.gif it's just repeated across the whole page

    also with the white portion it would depend on how your page is designed if it is static html then tables would be your best option, if it's wordpress or something like that the background shouldn't affect the text blocks

      This is right for the tiled background. For the white part, where the text will go, you'll want to use a div tag and css styles.

      For example, in your html, your div tag could look like this:
      <div id="main">
      Main content goes here.
      </div/>

      ...and your css code could look something like this:
      #main {
      background: #fff;
      width: 80%;
      }

      I agree - simple will allow the focus to fall on your page (not the background). Have a look at the link in my sig for an example of a simple background image - it was created with the link I provided earlier.
