Resizing my banner?

Post by Packer »

Hello,
I am coming to the end of the design stage of the website ive been working on and I have just one problem left.
The banner that only displays on the home page is, lets say, 700px x 200px but the website has since increased to say, 900px in width, so what im looking for is the code that determines how big the banner image is so I can change the 700 to 900 and fix my display problem (http://69.94.124.198). As you can see, the image with the building in it is pushed in when it shouldnt be.

Thanks for any help !

You could modify the height and width attributes of the image. If the tag to display it is a ShopSite tag this would be done under Images > Select the image > Edit Image and set the width to be what you want. Note that this will stretch the image and may make it look odd.

The best way would be to recreate the image in your image editing tool, (PhotoShop, Photo Paint etc) so that it is the proper size and doesn't need to be upsized.

Thanks for the reply,
However I may not have explained myself very well. The images was created to fit the width of the page (which has been increased from 800 to 900 pixels) so ive increased the size of the page, but I cant seem to find the

<img src = "banner.jpg" height="200" width="800" />

So I can change (or remove) the width that is restricting the image from displaying properly. Its not so much stretching, its more like pushing it together. Not good :P

Thanks for the help.. I think ill ask the developers where I can find this line of code, ive looked in the page template and the custom templates a few times, but I must be over looking it or they have hidden it well :P

Cheers,
Lewis.
