Many sites on the w.w.w. can provide free interesting textured and coloured backgrounds you can use. For example:http://www.grsites.com/archive/textures/ - To SAVE the textured background pictures: right-click on the picture and select "Save Picture As" or "Save Image As" to your web site folder. Other sites can provide  sound effects files http://www.grsites.com/archive/sounds/ and http://www.wavsource.com/ or gif. animated images, for example: http://madsenworld.dk/index-uk.htm or for music files: http://www.mediacollege.com/downloads/sound-effects/                  How can you avoid this?: " It's hard to read the text I typed on my webpage, because of the coloured background I used! ":-(               How to put text over a dark or busy background so you can still read the text: Make a small table just for your text. Insert a table with 1 row and 1 column into one of the cells (squares) of a larger table on your webpage. Then put a lighter coloured background in this table you are making for your text. How? Right mouse click, select 'Table Properties', then select a background of a plain colour or a picture, like this picture of canvas from our collection of backgrounds . How do you make your table go to the center of your page? Right mouse click, select 'Table Properties', then select your 'Layout' 'Alignment' to be 'Center'. With a table inserted for text like this, you will be able to read your text, even if your whole page background is a dark and stormy ocean! How do you make you text stay away from the edge of your text table? Right mouse click, select 'Table Properties', then select your 'Cell padding' to be about 20. How do you make the dark line around the edge of your text table? Right mouse click, select 'Table Properties', then select 'Borders', and change the size and colour.
