Bruce, a quick search for {theme snippets drupal} gave me this page
which has the theme snippets and php snippets (both for pages and
blocks).

I'm not really familiar with those instructions - maybe someone else can assist.

I think it depends on what suits you.  I have previous removed that
image from the "code" (I think it's in the css file, actually) because
I didn't want any image on my site.  If you want a background image,
but not the default one, you could just replace the current image with
your custom image.
