This background for non-raid instances. These are usally 5-man instances designed for a balanced group of 5 players. Some of these dungeons contain "Heroic" difficulty modes where the dungeon difficulty is increased with stronger enemies and more of them. These dungeons are generally accessed with keys obtained from reputation vendors.
This background is for raid instances. Raid instances generally require more then 5 players to join a raid group to attempt the dungeon. Raid instances normally have better gear then standard difficulty non-raid instances.
