Hi Team,
I want to create a branded custom background for our internal company boards via custom board backgrounds.
I find it hard to get the dimensions right so the background looks right (not stretched, blurry etc).
Is there any way to understand what the right dimensions of an image needs to be?
Hey Laura!
First of all, welcome to the Atlassian community! I hope you're enjoying your stay so far.
That's a complicated answer, but I'll try my best to explain it. The way Trello works with board backgrounds is admittedly a bit complicated. The part of Trello responsible for handling board backgrounds behaves differently depending on the image size you upload.
And so, I've talked with some of the developers responsible for the backgrounds. They recommend cropping and scaling your image to the exact browser dimensions you use when using Trello. This will ensure the background image will fit perfectly on the board background.
To determine the image dimensions, you should use for your board background, follow these steps:
This should put you in the right direction to create your custom board backgrounds.
