You can easily add a margin on the <p> tag within the footer to push the text down the page to where you need it to be.
The height and width you added are NOT for your background image but rather for the DIV you are assigning it to. Otherwise that div will only grow as large as your content, the copyright notice.

If anyone can point me in the right direction i can then go and look it up. I have footer div which has a background image. Question 1: To get the background image to display i needed to add width and height values. Is that correct practice? I obviously presumed wrong that it would just display automatically! Question 2: I have my footer text, in a <p>. I want the text to be at the bottom of the <div> not at the top as it is now. Is there a property to accomplish this?
