Hey Crest,
You were using backgound-image: when (I think) you needed to be using just 
background:

Is this what your trying to accomplish round abouts?

[code]

background:url("/wdp/wip/images/Learn2Basics_x320_bottom.png") top center/100% 
auto no-repeat, url("/wdp/wip/images/bg_learntut.gif") center/auto repeat, 
url("/wdp/images/grid.png") top center/auto repeat, 
url("/wdp/wip/images/backgroundtitle.png") top center/100% repeat;

[end code]

For the images that need opacity, make the file a transparent png or gif with 
it lightened in the file. 
Can't do it with CSS without making the container transparent along with it.

Here is some reading material on background.

CSS Syntax
background: color image position/size repeat origin clip attachment 
initial|inherit;

Yes its W3Schools, but its the correct synax to learn. So no harm no foul.

Best,
