Hi guys i'm brand new to this so your help would be greatly appreciated.

I've made an image that i'd like to use for a background on myspace. I've read the support stuff in 'resolved issues' and tried for a week now to upload my image. I've managed to upload but it will only upload to a certain size and will not fill the entire space of the background.

I also tried 'mapping' by following instructions but this doesn't seem to work either. I'm completely ignorant and a HTML newbie but i'm an ok graphic designer so once i get the hang of this and then eventually div layouts,I hope to be submitting some good layouts.

My background dimensions are 1028 x 768 at 300 dpi.

Please help
Nickie x

where are you hosting the photo? if you're using photobucket, i know you can change the maximum size of the photos uploaded. its right in that box where you upload photos, under the empty box you can see the reduce size section and you click the dropdown and you can enlarge the dimensions.
and there is a image mapping tutorial here on cb and i've never used it because i learned it elsewhere but i've read that its really easy and simple to follow.

The image that you are to use probably is that size your seeing right now. Maybe you can use background repeat to repeat the image on the background.
