Its currently difficult to talk about a common standard with all these devices like iPhone and iPad out there that got a much smaller screen size. for desktops and laptops I think you are fine with 1600 </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/background-image#post-335 Wed, 21 Jul 2010 17:17:36 +0000 ianforest 335@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi there,</p> <p>I have a background image I want to use with the theme that I guess is used behind the slider and on some of the pages with header text. At the minute it is HUGE at 1920 x 1200. What would be a good size to reduce that down to that will work with most modern browsers on big screens, i'm guessing a 21" imac is about average screen size these days?</p> <p>I tried measuring it at around 510px high on screen but it might need to be bigger.</p> <p>Any advice offered would be most welcome :)</p> <p>Where else is it used? In the footer? </p>
