adjust text with image element

Posted in: Newspaper

Hi
I have inserted a few ‘text with image’ elements on to my home page of a temp URL. I am copying my existing site http://www.fortemcapital.com, bringing it onto wordpress.

This is the temp url http://77.104.132.191/~fortemca/

I can’t seem to format the image and text/image boxes so they are
1) Thinner and fill the page with no border.

2) The images are different sizes, but I would like the image displayed to always be the same size, occupying exactly half the block. So some cropping is fine.

3) There is a white background which I would like to be transparent.

If you could tell me how to make these edits, and recreate the look of my current site, I would appreaciate it.

thanks

3) The easiest way will be with custom css, paste the below custom css in Newspaper>Theme panel>Custom code>Custom css
.home .td-container-wrap {
background-color: transparent;
}

If I do not understand correctly please let me know, and provide more details with what you want to achieve.

Thank you for your understanding.

thanks calin.
I have tried all your suggestions. Thanks

However, I am struggling with the images. The size of the block I can change using the margin function, but the finished size is still dependent on the image size. There is no cropping or adjusting the image to a fixed size. If I crop the image myself, to fit for desktop view, it looks horrible for mobile. How do I get the automatic image cropping to a fixed size.

Hi,

Please try to insert in a row an inner row and split in tow -> https://www.screencast.com/t/MEFbSnwHspr0
Then drag an image in one row and a text with title in the second one.
Hope this will help you better.

Thank you for your understanding.
