Solution 1

You can create a folder inside user project as 'Content' and then create another folder inside the 'Content' folder as 'Image' and put your images there and access those images from CSS is as below.

C#

#loadingDiv
   {
     background: url(/content/images/loading.gif) no-repeat;
   }

First '/' does not look right. You should better use relative path, for compatibility and other reasons.
Please see my answer...

This is also the relative path.It's relative to the root folder of the site (e.g. /images/logo.png).If you use it without leading slash (e.g. images/logo.png),then that path is relative to the CSS file.I think I'm right :)

Ah... It turns out that you are right about "/..." as a site's root, I tested it. Sorry for my confusion. I'm up-voting your answer by my 5 and already corrected my answer, please see.

You can put the files in any directory (or directories), as soon as they all are put under the root directory configured for your site. Usually, Web applications are executed under an HTTP server in a sandboxed environment, so they cannot access anything beyond this root directory.

By many reasons, it's the best to access the file using relative paths. For example, "../../images/myImage.png", "images/backgrounds/cloudySky.png", "./images/backgrounds/cloudySky.png", and so on. I hope you know path syntax and semantic. :-)
