web-design: help!

Since many members here have such great websites, I wondered if some of you could PM me for some advice on a glitch for a website I'm part of (it's run by a small team of folks, not this fandom :P ).

Thanks in advance. :wiggle:

It's got to do with fixed backgrounds in a page's body in combination with different screen sizes..... :blink: :hmm:

But you can never reach it on every PC, cause some people have more things on there screen then others. Witch leads to less space.

The only program that can automatically stretch to any screens resolution is Flash, but if your familiar with the program it can take a long time to make a website.

Personally i work in 800x600 in dreamweaver, by using a small resolution it will always fit on any screen. And because Dreamwaever uses frames, you can at extra frames to site that can not be seen on a small screen, but can be seen on a bigger resolution. Off course all your main bottoms or other important things have to be in the main screen.

If you make your background very big it can be seen in any resolution, as long as all the important things are in the center.

Hope this helps. :D

If you can show us an example of what you are trying to achieve, it would be easier to advise.

If you are referring to the background fixed tags then you should note they dont work in all browsers.

Plain background colour, or is it an image background,.? If so is it a single picture or is it a background tile ?
