For my Homepage Slideshow, I went to Customize --> Content and Design --> Click on Homepage --> Click on the Background tab --> Select Type "Slideshow", Photo Source "Gallery", Gallery (Choose your slideshow gallery) --> On Layout tab, select layout as "Stretch"


Hope that helps.

Hi,

I'm having some problems with the sizes of photos when they appear in the background.
The size of the photos are not resized to the browser window.

Thanks,

Your slideshow appears to be filling the entire browser. Are you still having any problems?

The background image will be cropped to fit the browser size that you are viewing on. For the homepage slideshow, it is best top select images with a the subject in the center and a bit of negative space around the edges. With that, the image can be cropped to fit well on many different browser ratios that are being used.
