this is called a background image. You can use this css code to achieve it, all you need to do is put it within the body tag or a class or id you create:
background: url(images/backgroundimagename.png) repeat-y;
width: imagewidthinpixelspx;
margin: auto auto;

background-attachment: fixed;
background-repeat: repeat-y;

Does the background image have two ends? As in: to act as a border on both ends. If so change this:

background-position: left;
to: center
or to: margin: auto auto;
or to: margin: 0 auto;

If it's liquid your going to have some problems. Making it fixed is best. Making liquid themes is a lot harder.
