Customised Zephyr

Posted 14 years 5 months ago
- I'd love to know what you guys think. This is a customised Zephyr with a jquery controlled fluid width background image.

  I'd love to get some comments on how I can keep the style and incorporate a little more blog functionality such as latest posts, most popular, categories etc - as you would have with the k2 modules. Really make it a bit more user friendly but still keep the style.
  
  Thanks for your comment in advance!

- read this

  css-tricks.com/how-to-resizeable-background-image/
  
  I would say the img with 100% width and position absolute is the best method.
  Needs a z-index: 0 or -1 in the real world tho ...
