Title: image squeezed Last modified: November 21, 2016 --- # image squeezed * [dasigna](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dasigna/) * (@dasigna) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-squeezed/) * would have used this one, but it squeezes the image in portrait mode on mobile….( easy backstretch does not!) so if this could be solved it would be great.

Typically it happens due to other CSS in your theme, so the only way for me to diagnose it is to view it live. * When the site is live, let me know and I’ll be happy to take a look. * Thread Starter [dasigna](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dasigna/) * (@dasigna) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-squeezed/#post-8472315) * thanks. maybe pushing it to staging server today. any contact where i can provide you with temporary login? * Thread Starter [dasigna](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dasigna/) * (@dasigna) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-squeezed/#post-8472875) * … site online – you got mail. * Moderator [Pippin Williamson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mordauk/) * (@mordauk) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-squeezed/#post-8475036) * I’m not seeing any background squeezing there. * Could you show me a screenshot of exactly what you see? * Thread Starter [dasigna](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dasigna/) * (@dasigna) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-squeezed/#post-8476815) * hmmm… wonder what you have seen, and on which device. * thats what i see: 1. landscape ⌊landscape⌉ 2. portrait ⌊portrait⌉ * if the aspect ratio of bg-image would be the same, the angle of the guitar-neck would be seen in the same angle… but thats not the case. portrait is squeezed. * try for yourself on ipad etc.: view page in landscape, turn the device to portrait and see whats happening. even with reload the result stays the same. * so see it now? * Thread Starter [dasigna](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dasigna/) * (@dasigna) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-squeezed/#post-8488217) * … no more answer??? * Moderator [Pippin Williamson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mordauk/) * (@mordauk) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-squeezed/#post-8490366) * It was a holiday weekend in the US and we’ve been a bit overloaded with tickets 🙂 * The screenshots you posted are showing up as broken. Could you post them again? * Thread Starter [dasigna](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dasigna/) * (@dasigna) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-squeezed/#post-8493114) * ahhhh. sorry – someone cleaned up and changed filenames. so here we go again: * 1. landscape ⌊landscape⌉ * 2. portrait ⌊portrait⌉ * see it now? obvious? * Thread Starter [dasigna](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dasigna/) * (@dasigna) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-squeezed/#post-8507965) * still on holidays…? 😉 * Moderator [Pippin Williamson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mordauk/) * (@mordauk) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-squeezed/#post-8517149) * Yes I was still traveling and only returned last night. * Does that issue go away when you activate the default Twenty Sixteen theme? * Thread Starter [dasigna](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dasigna/) * (@dasigna) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-squeezed/#post-8524548) * … that issue of course wont go away when activating default theme! * figured it out meanwhile: one have to set the min-width according to the width of the picture – or, have to use images with 1024px width. if wider than defined, it would squeeze on mobile because of defined min-width it seems … quite logical some way since knowing this, but maybe not best way. * tweaked the css, so it works now for the images i use, but better way is still anticipated 🙂 * Moderator [Pippin Williamson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mordauk/) * (@mordauk) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-squeezed/#post-8525617) * Actually the problem almost certainly does go away with the default theme. The reason it happens on your site is because of some CSS that’s being applied by the theme. * Glad to hear you’ve worked out a solution 🙂 Viewing 14 replies - 1 through 14 (of 14 total) The topic ‘image squeezed’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/simple-full-screen-background-image/assets/icon-256x256. png?rev=2006030) * [Simple Full Screen Background Image](https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-full-screen-background-image/) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/simple-full-screen-background-image/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/simple-full-screen-background-image/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/simple-full-screen-background-image/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/simple-full-screen-background-image/reviews/) * 14 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [Pippin Williamson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mordauk/) * Last activity: [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/image-squeezed/#post-8525617) * Status: not resolved
