I will do that. I did try tiling the image before, but i did not like the look of it tiled - but I will investigate further.

Rather than using the action, I would just make an image the size of your page in Photoshop, export it using Save for Web, and compress the living daylights out of it. As a background, you want it to have extremely limited detail anyway, so compression can’t take anything away from it. Then place the image in the Inspector, and choose centered or whatever would place it under your page layout, and be sure to turn off tiling altogether.
Another trick is to use a tiling image for the center of the page, and a separate static image for the top and bottom of the page. Look at the pages in this (FreewayTalk) site using the Web Inspector in Safari for one example of that technique. The round-rect around the messages area is done that way.
