    What is the optimal way of having a longer "story" on a Parallax Pro landing page?

    The optimal dimensions of each background image is 1600px (width) x 1050px (height). I'd like to use more text to have more copy, but also to have more of my background image "parallaxing".

    For instance, if you write too much in a text widget, on a smaller mobile device, there will be large white gaps. So you really have to limit what you put into a widget. If you'd like a text + youtube video, you need to keep the text short for real.

    So what is the optimal way if you'd like to have more text? I've tried increasing the size of the background images, but I haven't had any luck.

    Again, this all works great on a normal resolution, but once you use a tinier resolution (e.g., a mobile device with a 480px width), that large gap occurs if you use too much text.

    Thanks!
