Yes we use that same approach at http://online.tvu.ac.uk/

 

Our image is 1600 x 120

 

So far I've only come across one person in the university with a monitor
so wide that the image scrolls horizontally!

To get a full screen image you need to upload a transparent image as the
banner 230p x 40p 

Then upload your background image approx 1500p x 100p 

 

One issue with this is that when you resize the browser (making it
smaller) the Home, Help, Logout, Icons can be 'lost' on the image
behind.

 

Have a look at http://blackboard.smu.ac.uk we have used this method for
a full screen image at the top. The SMU banner at the top is 1400p x
100p

Subject: Banners in BB8 query

 

Hi Folks:
We're moving towards Branding in BBAS Release 8.
A couple of questions about banners -

What are the full screen-width banner limits (width x height) in pixels?
Is it possible to have a banner running right across the top of the page
& how is this done?

 

Can't find any of this info in the Admin manual, so help please!

 

ta

 

Best wishes

 

Terry
