Is this background image the one that you are thinking of?

If so, the easiest thing to do would be use SFTP and override it with a replacement .jpg that you have generated in any image editor (Photoshop, PSP, GIMP, Paint..).

If the forums are installed into the default "public" folder, then you'd have to navigate to that plus the path in the URL:

public/phpbb3/styles/melankolia/theme/images/
