Half of the time I visit my site, appcomrade.com, or refresh, the background becomes really ugly and blurry. I’m trying to figure out if this is because of the theme or because of CloudFlare?
Thanks,

Likely issue with the cloud.
I’ve had a ton of issues with selected things on my Amazon CDN, where 20% of the time the custom font (FontAwesome) won’t load properly. Finally gave up and we load FA4 off our own server. Doubtful it’s the theme. More likely in IE11/Win7, than anything else.
Might be the “lazy load” images code. I know we had issue with lazy loading images for “as page loads” and had to change to “after page loads.” But that’s outside my ability to help you on, as I think there is some optimization code in the TagDiv Booster which does some image lazy loading. But just some feedback, might not be helpful.
Thanks for helping me out Chris. It might be CloudFlare, but then again I’ve fixed the issue in the past by tweaking the theme’s background image alignment. Sometimes if its to the left, center, or right, it fixes it in the theme preview. But it’s a hit or miss and I haven’t been able to fix it permanently.

Turns out it was the theme. I just set the “is_streched_bg” value (in the td_background.php file) to false in a couple of places I saw it being used, and now the background looks perfect.
After trying to set the background size to a 211px * 211px width using CSS (so that it doesn’t stretch across the whole screen and become blurry), I found out the CSS wasn’t working even with a !important tag next to it.
So I just looked through the PHP files to see where the settings file is generating this stretch or no stretch CSS which I didn’t need, and disabled it.
If anyone else has this issue they could do the same thing. Just know that the “Stretch Background” option in the theme customizer will not work.
