    Question for those with websites and tartan background

    Ok, so I'm working on making a web page, and I'd like to have a tartan image as my background, as some of you here have. My question is, where did you find a suitable image to use?

    Thanks

    The one for Xmarks was made, I presume most others are as well, specifically for that purpose. Basically just get a tartan image, and crop it so that the repeat is correct, and only one repeat is present in the image (to cut down on file size).

    I can help you out with that if you need a hand.

    I will, but it will be some time.

    The subject matter probably wouldn't interest most here, though.

    The only page I'm using the tartan on is the "about me" page.
