AFAIK "align" is not a CSS property. Maybe you mean "text-align: center",
but that has no effect on the background. You want "background-position:
top center", or in shorthand:
background: #fff url(mainback.jpg) no-repeat top center;
You might want to find an online CSS reference. I use the ones at
