With the rash of recent cast changes, it seems that a new background might be needed. However, I looked back and see that Alessandra hasn't been on the board since 2019.
Does anyone else know how to change the background?

Thank you, Llyan for taking over admin duties almost as soon as I got the board up and semi-running.

Does it have to be such a big Background imahe or can the image be smaller and set on repeat? If you do want a new header; here's the banner image of the new season poster.  |

Thanks @jesselee. I'll update that this evening when I can use my personal PC to access the board.
As for the background, that's how the background is now. It's a repeated tile of a smaller image.

I can also add the Break Room to the banner - I have the NCIS font on my pc somewhere (my fonts are not really organized as there are thousands).
As for the background I grabbed, it's 800x980 pixels where I expected 800x70px aka one row of the images instead of 14 rows of the images. I need a pixel size for maximum image resp. what works best.
Also do you want to include all cast, current and previous? This means Maria Bello, Diona Reasonover, Gary Cole and Katerina Law need to be added. Have to find fitting images for all of them first....so would take a few days.

I found the font online and added it to the corner. Thoughts?  I don't need the former cast added to the banner but others might want them. |

I would set the Break Room under NCIS, make sure it alignes perfectly.
I don't care if all the main cast is in the background image (not the banner, that's the current cast and shouldn't be changed) or not, so maybe make a poll somewhere where it's seen and ask?
I'm pretty sure the current background is oversized because otherwise the images were all under each other, probably because the repeat doesn't work as flawless as it should. So let's stick with that format...

In order to see everyone, I have to scroll to the right. However, this center's Gibbs, places the writing to the left and cuts the dead space behind the waitress to the left.
Is there anyway that the dead space behind the waitress to the left could be deleted?

Option #2 - Cropped  |

I think you need to try both banners, the original and the cropped size, to see how the board acts. In my opinion such things differ not only from board to board but also depending on monitor size (may want to check with a smaller window too).

In my opinion such things differ not only from board to board but also depending on monitor size (may want to check with a smaller window too). I copied the blue theme and called it Blue New. If folks could take a look and let me know how it looks on their screens, I'd appreciate it. For those that want to change it, go to Profile -> Edit Profile -> Settings and change the forum theme in the drop down box. |
