 * Hi,
 * – Can I have a different background pict for each page I make?
    (I only find 
   a bg for “main column” pict).
 * – I wan’t to place my text freely on a page – on top of bg-pict. How? Using classes…
   or?
 * Br,
    Michael

 * Hi there Michael,
 * > Can I have a different background pict for each page I make?
 * Unfortunately this is not possible in Make.

 * You can add a [Banner section](https://thethemefoundry.com/docs/make-docs/page-builder/banner-section/)
   to a [Page builder template](https://thethemefoundry.com/docs/make-docs/page-builder/creating-builder-page/)
   in order to overlay your text on large images.
 * I hope that helps!

 * Thanks!
 * It helped a bit, but I get an issue trying to resolve a seamless boxed design
   look.
 * – When making a banner as suggested I get a gap at the top and at the bottom 
   of the banner pict. (Even if I set a smaller height it appears, changing the 
   responsive behavior or position).
 * At the top I guess the gap, about 20 px in height, is adjacent to the header 
   column, at the bottom it is about 50 px. (If inserting a bg pict in the “main
   column” it will fill out these gaps). But, this isn’t a pretty solution. Can 
   I have the banner pict to fill out the gaps instead?
 * – Also, how wide is the “main” column in pix at its widest position? (What width
   of the bg pict, in pix, is usually good to have when it is fully extended?).
 * – And, how wide could the “site” column be at max? (What width of the bg pict,
   in pix, is good to have if you have the browser fully extended on a 30″ screen
   or bigger?).
 * – The above applies when using the site on smaller screens aswell like Iphone,
   Ipad. Do you have any special features to adjust the pict for such sizes or does
   it work anyway?
 * Br,
    Michael

 * Hello Michael,

   > of the banner pict.
 * You would need to edit the CSS files in your theme to remove these. [Make Plus](https://thethemefoundry.com/wordpress-themes/make/)
   has an option to remove the padding, but that is not a feature of Make.
 * > Also, how wide is the “main” column in pix at its widest position? (What width

 * I’m not entirely sure what you’re asking. I would recommend you use background
   images that are at least 1440 px wide though. The main content container is 1024
   px wide.

 * We don’t have recommendations for image sizes beyond that. You’ll have decide
   what works best for your site and visitors based on content and purpose. Make
   was built on a responsive grid though, and as you will see by testing it out,
   the content does scale for any type of screen size.
 * Best of luck with your site build!
