The "New Tab" is not automatic as such, it only appears when you have set "Tab Mix Plus" ( or some other addon), NOT to close the browser when closing the last tab. This loads a new blank tab instead, and keeps the browser open. If you don't set this, the browser will close when you close the last tab.
The "background addon" adds a background to the whole browser, but you only see it when the page or tool you are using allows you to see it. Most pages simply overwrite the background. There must be some blank space for the background to occupy or you wont see it. In "New Tab" the page is blank by default and so you see the background.
If you want to load something else in the "New Tab" you have to specify it;
Whatever you specify here will then be applied to any "New Tab" you open.
