Confusion on size of header image

Can you enable right click? It doesn’t protect your page.

Hello,

Is that OK now?

John W

It looks like your original image will only show on monitors that are 1340px+ wide. How wide is your monitor?

Andrew,

I have 2 monitors to use
1600 X 1024
and
1920 X 1080

Thx

John W

This is the image that loads of me on a 1400px+ monitor:

Is that the image you’re referring to as cropped?

Andrew,

Yes that is a test image and when i tried to load it as the image for the Front page it forced my to crop the height.

The real image to go on the site is a different photo of the same subject, and it is the same size etc…but as yet i am not happy with the photographs so decided to proceed with the test image

John W

Although the editor makes you crop it, it looks like you’ve already made it the same size as the original photograph.

I’m not sure I understand the issue you’re facing.

Once i selected the image for the Front Page the theme forced me to crop the height and now on the front page the image is not displaying correctly because of the cropping.

And somehow i need to display the full image as it is a painting, and i want 100% of it displayed on the front page if i can.

John W

Can you link me to the original image so that I can compare and see what’s wrong?

Andrew,

Sorry for the delay i have been tidying up the image a little so now it is slightly smaller but hardly noticeable.

Below should be the DropBox link.

Thanks

Could this be a problem with the ratio of the image you’re uploading? Here is the ratio used in the theme’s demo for example: https://wp-themes.com/wp-content/themes/twentyseventeen/assets/images/header.jpg

Hmmm…. OK, I will try and organise a small test with my image and see what happens.

Thanks

Andrew,

Thanks for all your efforts, the ratio of width to height seems to be the key.
I added transparent edges to increase the width and it has made a difference…. not ideal but better that i had previously.

Thank You
John W
