 * Hi there,
 * I’m having trouble with sizing an image so that it perfectly fits in the banner.
   I’ve tried playing around with the dimensions but no matter what, whenever I 
   upload an image it always seems to get zoomed in and part of the image gets cut
   off or blurred.
 * Is there a specific dimension or image size that I should be using to have the
   image fit exactly in the banner?
 * Thanks

 * can you post a link to your site so I can see the image as you’ve uploaded and
   the area it needs to fit to?

 * Tried it but it still seems to want to automatically zoom in on the same spot
   of the image

 * the one there is 1144 x 572. You have to redo the image to 450px high.

 * You can also try adding this to your css:
 *     ```
       .builder-banner-slide {
       background-size: 100% 100%;
       }
       ```
   
 * Though if your images are not created at the size I gave the distortion may be
   too weird.

 * when i try to resize my image in photoshop it, it defaults the hight to 572 when
   i put the width as 1144 using pixel dimensions.

 * You would have to recreate it at the dimensions I gave, or set to the height,
   then change canvas size to the 1144 wide and center it.
 * Have you tried the support at the theme’s website?

 * found this in their documentation:
 * > Set the height of the banner section by changing the Section height text input.
   > The height is in pixels (px). Note that the exact pixel value will be used 
   > when the page is displayed at full width and will be scaled proportionally 
   > as the browser window narrows (such as on mobile devices).
 * You should be able to reset the height to the 572 your image defaults at. Keep
   in mind that any other slides you use will need to be the exact same dimensions.
