How to set background for 2D game.

Hey,
I wanna make background for my 2D game. And i have 6 different layers to use.
But, i do not know how to use them and set the background.
And i also want my background to move. Different layers will move at different speed.
So, can anyone help me out???
Thanks in advance.

You want a 2D parallax background. There are multiple ways to go about this. Basically you’re going to set up either several cameras or several planes with your textures on them. As your character moves each will move at a different speed.
