Background-image not showing up

For some reason, when I attempt to display a cloud image (which I made exactly the same way as the hill image), it doesn't show up! How come? Both images are .png files. However, the tree image has a solid background (not transparent) the clouds have a transparent background. Is this what is causing the issue? If so, how do I fix it? 

html
{

    /* Webkit (Safari/Chrome 10) */ 
    background-image: -webkit-gradient(linear, left bottom, left top, color-stop(0, #FFFFFF), color-stop(1, #00A3EF));

    /* Webkit (Chrome 11+) */ 
    background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient(bottom, #FFFFFF 0%, #00A3EF 100%);

}


.sky {
    background: url(clouds2.png) repeat-x; 
    display:     block;
    width:       500px;
    height:      500px;
     border: 1px solid red; 
}

As far as I am aware, you must specify a colour as the first parameter to background, and also put the image in single quotes:

background: transparent url('clouds2.png') repeat-x;
