How do you center a background image in a slider?

<div id="slider" class="sl-slider-wrapper">

                <div class="sl-slider">

                    <div class="sl-slide bg-1" data-orientation="horizontal" data-slice1-rotation="-25" data-slice2-rotation="-25" data-slice1-scale="2" data-slice2-scale="2">
                        <div class="sl-slide-inner">
                            <img src="img/1.jpg">

                        </div>
                    </div>
</div>

i know it's background-size: cover; but I don't know which class to target

Like that, I would say you have to apply your css rules to .sl-slide.bg-1". You should simply try and see what fits the best. You risk nothing if ever you are wrong :) !

Would you have the projet you are working on, online ? I might probably help you this way easily.
