You were missing a parenthesis.

You're missing the closing parethesis in the background-image field, and had a dash in between top and right [which I don't think needs to be there].

<style type="text/css">
body{background-image: url(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v293/jillywilly721/backgrounds/sponge.png);
background-attachment: fixed;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: top right;
</style>

Try that and see if it works.

Edit: Oops, a little late. ^.^

That's because it's not a large image. You could take away background-repeat: no-repeat;, but that will, of course, make your image repeat itself.

That user's background is 1047 x 634, which is why it's big. Yours, on the other hand, is 324 x 243. You cannot "stretch" it using CSS.

Well, we don't know why it's like that. It's not our image, it's yours. Perhaps you uploaded the wrong file? Try upload it again.
