Detailed Wallpaper Specifications
- One single static image is used for the wallpaper. This image should be 1280px wide to accommodate nearly every screen size in common use. This does not mean that all browsers will show all of the wallpaper content, as some users have smaller screens and browsers
- Right and Left Gutter Width = 137px fading to solid colour to 155px width
- The space between the gutters should be 970px
- Total file size: 150KB
- No text allowed. With the exception of logos and necessary legal text, all text, slogans and calls to action must live in the banner 300×250 and masthead units.
- The edges of the gutters should be faded to a solid colour that can be used also on the rest of the background. Please provide us with this hex colour so that it can be applied to the rest of the page background and which will be seen by users with wider screens
- The centre of the wallpaper image will appear behind the page content and therefore it will not be shown. This means that you can leave it blank, which will considerably help keeping the weight of the creative low
- The wallpaper will be aligned by the browser to its centre therefore it is subject to pixel rounding issues. As a consequence of this a thin line might appear between the page content and the blank area at the centre of the wallpaper. In order to avoid this we suggest building the gutter with an additional 3 to 5 pixels in width, with the excess moved towards the centre – i.e. the space between the gutters will be reduced by 3 to 5 pixels each side
- The gutters do not scroll with the page; they will remain fixed and will always be in the users’ view area. Because of this it is important to put the main features of the wallpaper at a height that can be seen by most users’ screens
- Vertical tiling is allowed
- In some cases a single tiling image can be used
- Background colour must be thematically consistent with takeover content
