You can create a custom CSS file.  Create a file called local.css
in the pub/css/ directory, and then set the background-image css
property for the body tag:

    body { background-image: url(/path/to/bgimage.jpg); }

If that doesn't work, let us know and we'll come up with about
five or six other ways to do it.  (Literally! :-)
