  It’s possible that site doesn’t allow hotlinking.

  Also, if you’re writing in HTML mode, it’s never a good idea to switch to Visual mode. It has a tendency to strip code that is actually permitted. Just use the Preview to see how it looks. If you switch to Visual, you have to paste the code back in.

  You might try replacing

  background="http://mypicture/bg.jpg"

  with the following inline CSS and see what happens

  style=”background-image:url(‘http://mypicture/bg.jpg’);”`

  First off, don’t hijack threads with off-topic questions. It causes confusion.

  Go to users > personal settings and make sure that the visual editor is enabled. Make sure and click save after making the change.
