css - background position (with slight padding?)

I am trying to emulate something like 

 background-position: left center

With the exception that it is not actually flush with the left side, so like 5-10 px off the left side and center.

My first attempt was like so 

 background-position: left 5px center

CSS does not seem to like that though, is something like this possible without messing with margins?

Thanks!

It is possible yes, and there are several ways.

and W3C have explained it pretty good over here (http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_background-position.asp)

Scroll to the table of Property Values and read the description of the X and Y values or the Xpos and Ypos values.

in your case, I believe that it will be something like:

background-position: 5px center;

I hope this helps
