Maybe I am not understanding what you want. Are you looking for, for
example, an image of an ornate picture frame that would surround an
image? Not sure a background-image is the answer in this case unless
the dimensions are fixed.
If you are talking about just a patterned, decorative background-image
for behind an image, it's more like:
#container {
width: 780px;
font: .8em Arial;
background: url(../images/bgimage.jpg) repeat 0 0;
padding: 10px;
}
<div id="container">
<img src="myimage" width="760" height="xxx" />
</div>
Again, maybe I am way off base here...
