hmm nope that didn't work so I guessed next move was css.... can't get that to work either here's what I have so far:

css in the following area:
css=myclass
Defines the aditional css class of the whole table. Possible values have to be defined in admincp.
The value is prepended by stg_table_ so the resulting css class with above example would be stg_table_myclass
The css code has to be added to "Additional CSS Definitions" of your style (AdminCP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> (Dropdown) Main CSS -> Additional CSS Definitions)

a quick warning about the style below, I've added a png transparency so the table shows up better on my image, IE doesn't support this! I've tried various ways of getting around this but I've not been successful yet I'll keep you posted

/* ***** table styles ***** */

.stg_table_myclass {
background-image: url(http://www.gamersdomain.net/images/games/forza3/forza3banner_1.jpg);
background-repeat: none;
}

.stg_table_myclass td {
border: none; 
background:transparent; 
text-align: center; 
} 

.stg_table_myclass .alt1 {background-image: url(http://www.gamersdomain.net/images/transpancy.png); background: -ms-filter: “progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=90)”;
filter: alpha(opacity=90);
-khtml-opacity: 0.9;
-moz-opacity: 0.9;
opacity: 0.9;
}

.stg_table_myclass .alt2 {
background-image: url(http://www.gamersdomain.net/images/transpancy.png);
background: -ms-filter: “progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=70)”;
filter: alpha(opacity=70);
-khtml-opacity: 0.7;
-moz-opacity: 0.7;
opacity: 0.7;
}

/* ***** end of table styles ***** */

BB Code [table] Settings: CSS Classes For The Table
