Content Band and Parallax parameter (image appearing too large)

[ChadAustin]

hi folks,

Note: This client’s site is in “Coming Soon Mode” so I’ll do my best to provide code and screen shot examples.

Also: I’m dealing with text-mode, not the visual inspector, nor Cornerstone.

So I’ve got this content band with a background parallax image. This is the code:

[content_band inner_container=“true” marginless_columns=“false” padding_top=“350px” padding_bottom=“350px” border=“none” bg_image=“https://que-a.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/MH-53_Pavelow2.jpg” parallax=“true”]

The problem is the image itself appears to be twice it’s original size, ruining the clarity of the image. I understand that monitor size can come into play (I’ve been doing web dev for 25 years, so I get that) but this is a little more exaggerated than normal.

It looks like this (screen shot bad.jpg)

I want it to appear as follows (i’m only concerned with the scale, if that helps)

Thanks in advance for any insight.

Chad

Hi there,

Thanks for writing in! I see you’ve given too much padding in your shortcode that’s why you’re seeing a large image, try replacing your shortcode with the following code:

[content_band inner_container="true" marginless_columns="false" padding_top="100px" padding_bottom="100px" border="none" bg_image="https://que-a.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/MH-53_Pavelow2.jpg" parallax="true"]

Hope this helps!
