Hello! I love this and am trying to adapt it so there is only one single background image that stays in place behind all the links while the user scrolls, but clearly I only know just enough bits and pieces about html and css to get myself in trouble because my background image is there but so zoomed in and indistinct it's impossible to tell what it is. Do you know why this might be happening?

I commented out your html for all the images, added a couple links, removed the background of the first div and added it back in by creating a new class for it and putting the css, in the format you have it for the fancy stuff, for that class in the custom journal layout. The changed parts look like this:



Currently it looks like this. It's supposed to be the image of a face in profile, and I can tell whatever images I try to put there do get put there, just... changed, for some reason. The version I'm using is the vertical 500x500 one, and my background image is 500px wide and 571px high, but I tried trimming my background image to 500x500 and now it seems like even the original image is even more zoomed in. I'm pretty amused by this because it means I'm still not sure whether the size of the background images I'm using is the issue.

No worries if figuring this out would take too long, I'm just not sure what to google to try and figure out what I'm not understanding about what I'm doing. It's not essential that it looks fancy anyway, I got it working without the fancy stuff, but on the off chance there's a simple solution for this I figured I'd ask. Thanks for the navigation page theme, it's cool!
