This is a very old chestnut and different people have different ideas as to where to have the CSS file saved.
I prefer it to be along with my view files and you can see the line I use in my header here along with the CSS file background image instruction:
Code:
// from my views header file:
<link type='text/css' href='/justjokes/views/style_001.css.php' rel='stylesheet' media='all' />
// from my CSS file in the views directory
body{background:#fff url(grad_green.jpg) 0 0 repeat-x;color:#0fc;margin:0 auto}
// the background image file is also saved in the views folder
