Superb information about this here: http://www.webmalama.com/the-best-full-screen-background-image-sizes-for-web-design/

"1440 x 900 is my magic number for general full screen backgrounds.
If it is a partial screen height design, then I keep 1440 and do whatever height is called for.
If it is a full width background slider with more than 3 or 4 images, I size it down as far as 960 x 600 to save on load time without diminishing image quality too much when they stretch.
If you can, use media queries to serve from a pool of 3 or 4 perfectly-sized images for each image in your background"

Hey Neetso, check out this guys site - he uses a background image. http://robejero.com/

Let me know how you go, I'm attempting to do the same. wpsniffer.com is a good tool to find out sites using a theme.
