Well it's worth the wait, Josh, to see your backdrop come up with the

Make this a visual that we can click on to get the full effect in a
separate page. Then, you can crop a portion of your lovely painting,
maybe the curvy blue buildings, and turn that into a tiled .gif file
that would repeat across your page. With this limited color scheme, you
could then choose your TEXT colors for contrast, and not have to worry
about legibility. But either put your painting on a separate page
that you provide a link to, or limit the color palette.
