CSS Background image not loading

by

First of all, wave bye-bye to those quotes:

background-image: url(nickcage.jpg); // No quotes around the file name

Next, if your html, css and image are all in the same directory then removing the quotes should fix it.
If, however, your css or image are in subdirectories of where your html lives, you’ll want to make sure you correctly path to the image:

background-image: url(../images/nickcage.jpg); // css and image live in subdorectories

background-image: url(images/nickcage.jpg); // css lives with html but images is a subdirectory

Hope it helps.
