Pixel issues on my website...
« on: November 04, 2012, 01:10:53 am »
How many pixels do you need to make an image in order for it to take up the whole page as a background? I'm making a template in gimp to serve as the main background image and the meat of the site, but I'm not sure how many pixels to make it, and how to prevent scrolling from removing the image.
In short, I need to know how to apply what I make in gimp to my webpage.

This is my first time making a website, and I'm pretty new in this area. I Google'd it (And tried many other things), but the results haven't been very helpful...
Thank you in advance.

Didn't work, it's still a smaller size. :( Thx though. Do I have to make it actually bigger in gimp? If so, how much bigger? How many pixels do I need to make it full screen?

well it dose not really matter what size you make it because people use different screen resolution
so it can look good at one screen and crappy on another

what browser are you using? the above code should work :/

Code: (css) [Select]

  background: url('IMAGE.PNG') repeat;
   background-size: 100%;
}
Try that, use repeat instead of no-repeat

Same result... Maybe Zesh will know an answer when he sees this, since we're working on it together.
Thanks for the help so far guys, I'm surprised it's this hard to find an answer. I thought this would be the last thing I'd get caught up on. :D

Neither seem to have worked...I have no clue why. It wont even repeat across the x-axis, but I think that may be because the image would go over the width of the page if there were two. :(

Yep. That's why I'm confused. If something were wrong i would think nothing would happen at all. And I did save it before re-running  :D, im not making any stupid mistakes like that.
@relax: Same thing on Ie and firefox...
