It didn't work, I put the image url in the code and it showed up as blank and i still had the deviantart default background

This could be due to a faulty background image link. Just check if the background URL is correctly used.

It can't be because I am using it myself. Check your links properly. Most of the times the URLs are incorrect.

where do you find the custom backround box?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Goto edit page at the top-right corner of your page. Navigate to the bottom "gallery" tab and you should get the widget "custom" there. Just install it and place it where you need in your page.

I cant do this ;-; It always ends up as a link .-.

Then in that case you are copying the URL address of the page and not the image link of the image.
