Optimal Background Size
Replies
Hey guys, I was wondering...
What should the size of my background picture be for a pet profile? I don't want any repeating or white space at the bottom.
Thanks!

it depends on what kind of background it is. if the background image is JUST the background, and all the content is coded in separately, then there is a cool trick to make the background scale to the size of the viewer's window, which you can see in use on my pet Crepuscular's profile:
html {
background: url(IMAGE URL) no-repeat center center fixed;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
}
if, however, the background contains aspects of the actual profile (the pet's name, content box backgrounds, etc.) then i usually use a width between 1500 and 2000 pixels.
