Hey Elie, I believe that later on there is a whole segment devoted to responsive web design. Also, there is no one way to accomplish your task, and the way I recommend doing it may not be the best solution for your project. Without knowing too much about what you are doing, I would recommend: '''css // makes sure that the IMGis contained in container. background-size:contain; // centers background img in container. background-position:center; '''
