Center a background image [was: how it's done... what I'm doing wrong...]

Hello

I'm a bit new to DW.  I have a .jpg file is 1000pixels wide and 1100 high pixies that I want to use as the background for my site.  I want the picture is centered (not left-justified).  Then I want two tables on top of this image.  The first will be for my buttons/links and the second will be for any text and images that will be displayed below buttons.

I got it works in DW and it seems fine when he spotted in a browser.  However, after downloading it, my background image disappears and I get a question mark.

In addition, both my paintings is centered, but the background image is not.

Thanks to all who can help.

This file is 404 - not found on the server.

A you download in the server?  BTW, I'm not too keen on the use of underscore in file names or folder.  Why not just name it "images?

Finally, it is very difficult to try to align precisely images and text on a huge background image. He works in print design, but is not an ideal way to work with web pages. Be sure to test your site often in all browsers and text sizes.  You can be in for some big surprises if you do not.

To Center a page with CSS background:

{body

background: top center of no repeat of url (path/filename.jpg);

}

Good luck

    I'm having a problem using the slideshow module in LR 6.3. The slideshow contains the background image as one of the images to display. Earlier, I have created a slideshow of practice and the background image was not displayed as an image in itself. How to make it behave?

    Another approach, perhaps a little more elegant (?). Create a collection that includes images for the slideshow. Include the background image in the collection. Drag the background image in the Panel to designate. Then, remove this image from the collection and create the slide show. I just tried and it works, too.

    You do not have something wrong. January 2014 Photoshop CC update has added the ability to incorporate link GOLD Smart Objects. Before this update Photoshop CC, smart objects are always embedded in the Photoshop document. Although he made the biggest file size, it was as a backup plan because all placed files have been included in the document. Now you have the ability to embed or link the smart object. Link refers to the file instead of actually copying in your current file. Regarding your little tutorial, choose Embed.

    The map view wouldn't make any difference, so more clarification is needed on your workflow.

  • Please help, I want to replace a shape with an image. I don't understand what I'm doing wrong.

    I watched a video of a guy this step by step and I still can't make it work.

    What I want to do is to replace a shape with an image. I guess the way to do is to make the image of the background color of the form, if you want to. On the element of the scene, I click on "creationcomplete", and then type the following code:

    ($(sym.lookupselector("BIG_RIGHT_BOX")).css('background-image','url(images/Karma.jpg)');

    I put the photo (karma.jpg) in the project, and I can see it in the "images" tab

    You are very close - just a few things:

    1. No need to lookupselector - in Animate, use sym. $)
    2. The url itself should also be nested quotes

    Then try this:

    SYM.$("BIG_RIGHT_BOX"). CSS ('background-image', 'url("images/Karma.jpg")');

    That should do it...

  • I have a background image.  How can I add an image to the new layer?

    I have a picture as locked background.  When I create a new layer, how can I put a new photo on the new layer?

  • Persistent for the subtraction of the background image collection (how to get the maximum value of each pixel in a series of images IMAQ)

    Hi all

    I have a system of LabVIEW which takes advantage IMAQ tools and features of the Vision Development Module.  A useful feature that I put in place is to be able to take a snapshot of the video stream and then subtract this single image among the subsequent images.

    What I want to do is to collect a series of images instead of one, and then create a unique image of these frameworks is just the maximum value of pixels in each pixel (a bit like a display persistent).

    It would probably be very easy to be implemented by converting the image to a table and then by doing math number on the table and then turning into an image, but I hope that someone here may know how to use the IMAQ/VDM tools to do this in a way more compact.

    Thank you very much

    How about using Max comparison IMAQ operation?

  • can images with transparency display edge art object - what I'm doing wrong, how it be fixed

    Hello

    With the help of MUSE CC 2014

    I need to place images photoshop text (with transparency) on a full screen slide show but I'm artifacts edge around the inscription which looks like, well frankly, horrible. I do not remember previous versions of MUSE is quite as bad as this, I'm doing something wrong? Is there a trick to overcome these ugly artifacts?


    PSD images are either imported SS


    Thank you very much in advance for any help.



    Hi Vikas

    I was falling a pds on the scene file. No other layers as transparent image and bg. I was reducing the image down in the Muse that I discovered exaggerates the visibility of image edge objects. After a little reading, it appears that there is a known issue with Adobe Muse, something to do with the algorithms that muse use images nationwide. I also think that the color of the layer has contributed a bit to the effect also.

    Problem solved when I gave up the way of the PSD and rather any SS as a PNG image.

  • I can't put any text in an image, what am I doing wrong?

    Hello

    I was using elements 10-text to the images in jpeg format, but sometimes it is not possible to do. can you help out me am I something wrong?

    I can select a box, but I see nothing, a cursor

    Not sure what you mean by there.

    The text will be on its own layer. After you type the text, then drag into position. You can use the move tool, if necessary.

    If the tool does not work, reset tool. To do this, click on the little arrow, top left, on the tool options bar, then reset the tool.
