Re: [WSG] advice on background images?
Hi, Jon; Thanks for the offer of more info on this, and sorry for bending (breaking?) the main purpose of WSG! Any info you can offer on this subject would be a huge help! cs On Nov 26, 2010, at 2:25 PM, Jon @ The PixelForge wrote: Again, I'm not sure if this deserves place in WSG, but to give you some direction: Photoshop has an Offset filter.

Use a better background-image? I’m not sure what you mean? bg images repeat if you tell it to do. You either have an image designed to repeat or you don' (or you have a vector image via SVG that scales instead). > > > thanks > > cs > > > *** > List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm > Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm > Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org > *** -- David Storey Chief Web Opener / Product Manager, Opera Dragonfly W3C WG: Mobile Web Best Practices / SVG Interest Group Opera Software ASA, Oslo, Norway Mobile: +47 94 22 02 32 / E-Mail/XMPP: dsto...@opera.com / Twitter: dstorey *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org ***
