Take a leaf out of the font property:
<'background-color'> || <'background-image'> ||
<'background-repeat'> || <'background-attachment'> ||
<'background-position'> [ / <'background-size'> ]?] | inherit
So:
background: red url('tiedye.png') repeat 0 0 / 100px 100px;
This has the benefit of being consistant with the solution used to
solve the problem elsewhere.
