Do you see the full-sized background image on this page? In a nutshell, that's what Backstretch does. It will stretch any image to fit the page, and will automatically resize as the window size changes.

Images are fetched after your page is loaded, so your users won't have to wait for the (often large) image to download before using your site.

Support

Basic support is offered through Github's issues tracker. Many requests are resolved through the help of fellow Backstretch users and myself, however assistance is not guaranteed or timely.

If you are in need of immediate support, or would like customizations to the script, Premium Support is available for $17. Premium Support provides you with direct email access to me, and allows me to set time aside to help solve your problem quickly.
