You can't put them in an external CSS file, but you could do it with inline styles, or some properties set in the page head. Have the majority of your styles externally, and a few images called from within the page template.

Typically, template images (CSS backgrounds) are stored not in the CMS, but in the images folder in your design. Then, in the css file, reference the image with url(../images/imagename.png). This prevents the CMS from controlling those images, but most don't usually need to be.

Okay, thanks.. I'm pretty sure I tried that, but I'll give it a go again. We use a lot of CSS defined background images here, especially with CSS sprites, menus, and image replacement, so it would be nice it we could find a way to implement that easily.

It's really hard to tell with eZpublish what is a real folder and what is virtual. I assumed that since I had called the stylesheet using ezdesign() the paths in the stylesheet could be relative.

/stylesheets/style.css could refer to: ../images/image.gif
