Seeing as im feeling nice i will show you where to put it but be aware you may not always get someone to do this for you, as i know i tend to try and help them learn rather than me just telling them.
The coding ArwenEvenstar gave you goes in between your head tags in something called style tags..
So it will look like this, i also replace the URL bit given in the code with the url as you can see it is in red:
<head>
<style type="text/css">
body {
background-image: url('http://www.freewebs.com/elementorslayout1/blue%20background');}
</style>
</head>

Now you have this:
body
{background-image: url('http://www.freewebs.com/elementorslayout1/blue%20background');}
padding-left: 11em;
font-family: Arial, "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
color: white;
background-color: #000000;}
You need to get rid of the } after the background-image line.
