Thanks for the awesome theme guys. Purchased today and have been playing with it non-stop.

Currently testing it on our dev site and i need to bring the entire site down to accomodate a background which has a horizontal section which needs to sit on top of the site so it wraps the top, left and right hand sides. Please can i have the CSS code to do this.

Hi,

You can do it but you have to set a fixed background not stretch and you have to make the black window to fit your site’s layout, and also the image size has to be much bigger.
Here is an example with your image enlarged: http://screencast.com/t/33vxiJRK
Also this solution will not be responsive because the background has a fixed size.

Thanks

Thanks for the reply. Ive had a play with it but i still dont seem to be able to do it so that the site shifts down to accomodate the header image. The header (in the blood) just sits underneath the header of the site itself.

Hi,

The header dose not sit under the header, the background image on your site is stretched to fill the whole site but in fact the image

it’s small, it’s only 1300px x 1012px and will not fill the whole background, you can check this yourself, remove the stretch like here: http://screencast.com/t/C786Flxs5 and check your site, should look like this after you disable the stretch: http://screencast.com/t/j3iW2nxmN

Like I said before you have to set a fixed background not stretch and you have to make the black window to fit your site’s layout, also keep in mind that this solution will not be responsive because the background has a fixed size. To be responsive it’s more difficult.

Thanks for your message!
