    I've reviewed the forum and found several people have had the same problem as me with the background image in Minimum Pro. I also discovered through this review the great resource that is "Sridhar Katakam" and his page

    http://sridharkatakam.com

    Does anyone have some good tips or recommendations on file size (i.e. pixel dimensions of the drawing template) of a background image?

    I've used the theme on a few sites and usually just modify the same image template I've built in Photoshop, but it usually requires a few tweaks depending on the image content to get it right.

    Size wise: 1600x1200 or larger would be best, but bigger means larger file size. A 4:3 aspect ratio would work best as most computer screens are that (or close) and it's easy to crop that to 16:9, but cropping 16:9 to 4:3 loses a lot of data.
