To stop the background from "tiling"
Try adding the following CSS tag right after the BODY tag:

BODY STYLE="background-image: url(backgroundimagenamehere.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat"
Of course don't for get the brackets (<at the beginning and >at the end)
also replace
"backgroundimagenamehere.jpg" with your real background image name and
extension.

I am not sure about the alignment issue. I think it can be handle with
CSS...
