# How do I have a background image that isn't tiled?

Hi,\
\
Please help me, how do I have a [background image](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/539/css-background-image-properties-not-work-in-outlook) that isn't tiled? \
\
Thanks

Hi Goti Bandu,\

Specify the [background](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/65/how-to-change-background-color-of-tab-control-in-c-sharp)-repeat property as no-repeat. You can also use the background property as a shortcut for specifying multiple background-* properties at once. Here's an example:

```
BODY {background: #FFF url(watermark.jpg) no-repeat;}
```
