And what's more is those resources from the CSS file will themselves be 
fetched through the Faces servlet.  This:

body  {
	background:url("#{resource['img/bbg.jpg']}") left top repeat;
	color:#555555;
	font-size:11px;
	font-family:Tahoma, Arial;
	padding:0px 0px 0px 0px;
	margin:0px 0px 0px 0px;
}


gets transmorgified to this:


body  {
	background:url("/TechDarwinia/faces/javax.faces.resource/img/bbg.jpg") 
left top repeat;
	color:#555555;
	font-size:11px;
	font-family:Tahoma, Arial;
	padding:0px 0px 0px 0px;
	margin:0px 0px 0px 0px;
}
