Good compression and gives you a lot of control on the quality and size. </p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Devin </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/help-needed-background-images#post-67905 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 06:31:38 +0000 danzac10 67905@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Devin,</p> <p>Thank you for the quick response and helpful input.</p> <p>Regarding background images and pictures in general, what is the best file format to use (JPEG, GIF, TIF, etc)??</p> <p>Thanks again! </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/help-needed-background-images#post-67895 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 05:42:45 +0000 Devin 67895@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi danzac10,</p> <p>Its a good size that will look good across most screens. As long as you can keep the file size down it should give you a good looking background. There will be some scaling issues however depending the individual users screen size.</p> <p>Since most people these days use widescreen monitors you could also use something more like 1500 wide by 1000 height. Just as an example, the main background gallery in the demo uses images that are 1500px by 937px.</p> <p>Hope that helps :)</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Devin </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/help-needed-background-images#post-67884 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 04:17:31 +0000 danzac10 67884@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Ismael,</p> <p>Appreciate the assistance. Is 1500x1500 px the typical dimension set I should apply to all of the pictures I use as the website background?</p> <p>Thanks again. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/help-needed-background-images#post-67819 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 23:01:59 +0000 Ismael 67819@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>You can find the image sizes settings on functions.php. Recommended image size is 1500x1500 px.</p> <p><code>$avia_config[&#39;imgSize&#39;][&#39;fullsize&#39;] = array(&#39;width&#39;=&gt;1500, &#39;height&#39;=&gt;1500, &#39;crop&#39;=&gt;false); // big images for fuöösize slider</code></p> <p>Regards,<br /> Ismael </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/help-needed-background-images#post-67812 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 21:10:53 +0000 danzac10 67812@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Fellow Flashlight Users,</p> <p>I'm having trouble with my Background Images and sizing them appropriately. I've been saving some wallpapers I've designed personally in Photoshop as JPEG's, however when I upload them onto my website, they always turn out much too zoomed in...</p> <p>I've tried scaling, cropping, etc., but no success thus far.</p> <p>Is there an ideal dimension set (?? x ??) that should be used for this theme and its backgrounds?</p> <p>Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you in advance. </p>
