Help with adding a background image

I think I have a file problem. Within task 3 where we are suppose to

Add the background texture.png from inside the img folder and set the background to repeat." I can't get the texture file to work. I need all the image files for the website as I haven't been able to display any yet. I think I am not saving them correctly.

How do I need to organize them on my computer to make the relative paths right? Also, the background texture.png is different when I go to the website and click the image, it is then a jpg instead of a png.
