Of the body or a container div?.. and have a div with padding to set it in the middle?

Use what ever method you are comfortable with to position the content within that div. You are confining yourself to that page size (width and height) however, unless you decide on a background color that will show should someone want to or need to scale their text size. Scaling text (up) would most likely push out your containing div (one with image bg) at least in one direction, so the question would be what to do in that case. (i.e. the bg color mentioned before). You could also have a huge image that was "cropped" by the container div, and as the user scaled their text (up) more of the huge image would show. The down-side to this is that it would be... well... a huge image.
