how to remove background image in css

Hi
I am trying to remove the background image from a template that i downloaded.
Here is what i suspect needs to be changed:

Code:

body {background:url(../images/bg_img.jpg) top center no-repeat #000;border:0;font:13px Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#3a3a3a;line-height:20px;min-width:980px;text-align:justify;padding:10px 0}

how do I remove the background without messing anything else up?
I tried deleting the bg_img.jpg file, and that worked, but is there a more legit way of doing it?

Change

background:url(../images/bg_img.jpg) top center no-repeat #000;

to

Code:

background: #000;

Hello mike316,
That line is the shorthand for 3 different background properties, image/color/position. Have a look at background shorthand here.

Here the regular background properties are described.

And, of course, _Aerospace_Eng_'s suggestion fixes your problem.
