For someone familiar with CSS it isn’t too much work to figure out they need something like  
`body.category-feature {`  
but anyone should be able to do  
`body {`

TBH, I experimented a bit with background images but after a few tries and failing to find anything that didn’t interfere with reading posts I gave up.  
Not that it can’t be done in a way that looks great, but in my defense, I’m not a designer
