Is there any way to make the portal container transparent instead of opaque, so that the modules are the only things that cover my background image? Would there be an easy way to do this for instance in the style sheet editor? (I have not learnt how to edit skins yet) Thanks heaps!

Either you remove the background-color in the containers css, or you overwrite it.
For the Blue skin you would add:
 
.containermaster_blue{
    background-color:transparent;
}

in the stylesheet editor of the site

Thanks a lot Timo!

I have got my page looking like this http://www.getouttv.com/sample.JPG .My code now looks like this:

/* PAGE BACKGROUND */
/* background color for the header at the top of the page  */
.HeadBg {
}

.containermaster_blue{
background-color:transparent;
}

.containermaster_blue{
background-image: url(nils.jpg);
}

.ControlPanel {
}

/* background/border colors for the selected tab */
.TabBg {
}

.LeftPane  {
}

.ContentPane  {
}

.RightPane  {
}

/* text style for the selected tab */
.SelectedTab {
}

/* hyperlink style for the selected tab */
A.SelectedTab:link {
}

But I would like the picture to lay behind each of the modules, not in them. (with colour in the modules instead.) How would I code that?

 

.pagemaster {

background-image: url(nils.jpg);

}

.HeadBg {

}

Does not work, because that only changes the page body background, which is outside of the container. I only display the container on my site, and therefor wish to put a background image to the container. Anyone?

I think you should make clear what you want exactly.
To me it's not clear.

What do you mean with "the container", which in DNN is the box directly surrounding a module.

The code you post does work for the container (and is does in your example image)

Apparently you want something else....

Sorry, apparently I've misunderstod what a container is. But what I would like is for the background image to fill the spaces around and between each module, not IN the module like the screenshot. So that I would have the modules filled by a colour, and the "empty" space where no modules are placed having the background image. Does that make sense?
