“Notes from Outside the Machine” is a website that I’ve just started to work on. I’ve never had to deal with a full size scaleable image for a background. After creating the graphic, I used a little CSS to make it stick. If you are interested in how it’s accomplished here’s the code :
/* *Homepage background graphic
*/
html {
background: url(/images/bg.jpg) no-repeat center center fixed;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
}That’s it. Just a little tweaking of the html tag in the .css file.
It’s a little heavy on the download, but I think the pay off is well worth it. The site itself features three unique blogs that can all be accessed through the homepage.
