Background Image for Stories

Ashleigh

Does anyone know the best dimensions to use for background images? I had someone from our Marketing team make us some background images to use but when I went to use them they appeared blurry in Domo. Wondering if there is a set of dimensions that would make it optimal to use on a dashboard.

There is not a concrete answer for this because what a person sees in their background is reflective of their screen resolution as well as how many cards that you have on the dashboard that require vertical scrolling. I would suggest at least 1400x700, but you may need to upload a couple different sample images that are different dimensions and see what fits your dashboard best.

Hi @Ashleigh, according to DomoHelp, background images are recommended to have a size with a 2:1 ratio, so agreed with @MarkSnodgrass advice. But that's all the guidance provided online in terms of dimensions for background images :/
