I am trying to add a background image to an html page but for some reason it will not work. I can change the background color no problem but not the image. I have pasted the html and css code below.


<!doctype html>

<head>
<title>Meet For Pleasure</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="Homepage.css">

</head>

<body>

<div class="footer__bottom wow fadeInUp" data-wow-duration="1.5s">
<div class="container">
<div class="footer__content text-center">
<p class="mb-0 text-white">All Rights Reserved &copy Meet For Pleasure</a> || Design By: Jonathan Quiles
</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</footer>

</body>

/*Selector {
property: value;}*/

body{
background-image: url(img_logodesign.bmp;)
}


</html>

Try
body{
background-image: url("img_logodesign.bmp");
}
Notice the quotes.

In short, BMP is not ideal for web use because:
  • Large File Size: BMP files are big and slow to load.
  • No Compression: They lack compression, making them impractical for the web.
  • Limited Browser Support: Not all browsers support BMP.
  • No Transparency: BMP doesn't support transparent backgrounds.
For web graphics, formats like JPEG (for photos) and PNG (for graphics with transparency) are preferred due to smaller file sizes and better web compatibility.


Check, background-image [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]
