<style type="text/css" id="custom-background-css">
body.custom-background { background-color: #ffffff; background-image: url('http://islandofopenprocess.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/island21.png'); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: top right; background-attachment: fixed; }
</style>

i dont know if this helps but the code on the site looks like this, im a beginner in wordpress so just guessing that somewhere here is the problem

sorry it still not working, i tried different stuff but nothing works, picture still sticks in the upper corner, i have child theme and custom css installed. Do I need the functions.php in my child-theme directory?

For the problem of the image is sticking in the corner this can be a solution:

body.custom-background {
    background-position:x% y%;
}

look here for details: http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_background-position.asp

best martin, thnaks for your help

thanks for the answer, but im not sure where to add this code fragment, can you help me with that? With space to border i mean, the image is now sticking in the corner of the page and i would like to have it with some space to the corner. And i was wondering if there is an opportunity do it with css or if i just add some border to the image and thats it…

thanks a lot, now i changed the layout idea and want to have the pages half transparent, id try to add this to the tag:

.content-area{
background-color: rgb(255,255,255);
zoom: 1;
filter: alpha(opacity=50);
opacity: 0.5;
}

but this make the whole site transparent see here

yeah thanks a lot that helped, i added the height tag so the header is bigger, not sure if this is the smartest idea but it works.
