Image Specs for Travel Demo

Posted in: Newspaper
Post count: 85

Hello good day,

I just installed Newspaper 6.4 and I’m thrilled about the Travel Demo style. However, can someone please give me the image dimensions for the header image used on the homepage of the demo (the camel with beach huts and skyscrapers in the background)?

So far I’ve tried 1235×524 but when I follow the instructions given here on the forums, the result is somewhat blurred.

I would like my image to remain as sharp as the Travel Demo shown here: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_travel/

Here’s a screenshot of my homepage: http://www.screencast.com/t/FlhZ1P99Vk.

Notice that the two aren’t of the same sharpness (and I know a little bit about image sharpness, because I’m a photographer and I regularly prepare my images for web and print).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Hello,

There is no ideal size for the background picture. The travel demo uses a size of 1920 x 815 pixels: http://screencast.com/t/2i5pyr9SV
There is also another topic regarding background image sizes here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/background-image-is-driving-me-mad/

I hope this helps.
Thank you!

Good Morning

I’m also using the travel demo. However I also have the problem that the photo in the header appears always blurred. I already put the photo in the size of 1920×815 and it always remains blurred. The photo has excellent quality. I do not understand why.

Thank you
Thank you

Hi,


@webstyle
Maybe you are not setting the full size of the image

If you set a thumbnail then that would be stretched to fill the container, the results will be blurry indeed.

Thanks
