Background Issues Options

[Srob]

Hello,

First off, thanks for reading. Okay, I always have issues with my images fitting on myspace. I have made them crazily large (like 4295 pixels) and it still doesn't fit the whole page. I don't want it to have to repeat---I would just like it to stretch or fit the entire page.

Here is my address: www.myspace.com/stephenrobertson

I don't know what to do here is my script for the image:
<style type="text/css">
.r{}
body {
background-color:FFFFFF;
background-image:url('http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f123/Srob1989/Card3-2.jpg');
background-position: center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-attachment:fixed;
border-width:1px;
border-color:FFFFFF;
border-style:solid;
}

So this may be a real "newbie" question, but I tried searching the forums. So if I'm stupid and can't find it, sorry!!

In you're myspace it repeats but the code says no-repeat .. ?

That code should be right. no-repeat. But it would be a regular sized image on wherever it's positioned.

I don't think you can stretch it? It can cause blurry'ness too. Or I haven't seen any code that stretch it so it can fit the whole site.

Other then that you will probably need to repeat (even though repeating images can be ugly) if you want it to fit the site.

Or you can always just go to a paint program and make the image larger?

Correct me if I'm wrong.

It shouldn't be repeating---wierd. I just checked it.

Anyway, I tried enlarging it in Paint and in Jasc Paint Shop Pro--My dimensions got huge---like 4295 to 4100 or something like that. Still did the same thing. I guess I'll just leave it like it is.

Thanks for the reply, btw.

I tried looking at the image, but photobucket took me to an error page and said it wasn't there anymore.

Mind hosting it again?

Well I am having all sorts of problems.

Here we go:

ah no wonder, that images is like half the size of my screen... but smaller.

my best bet would be to use the size of the highest screen resolution.

I have increased the file:

On Jasc PSP I have the dimensions at like 4453--but when I upload it only goes to 800X600 on Photobucket--this is why huh?

photobucket resizes the image to the max it will hold unless you subscribe to photobucket to be able to upload a larger file. that's why it resized the image.

^Very true, try uploading your images to imageshack.us instead.
