Project help

Every time i change the font size the image itself either gets bigger or smaller depending on the font size, how can i just keep the image the same size regardless of font size?

How would i do method 1? I'm still learning html & css as i go. I get what you're trying to say with the background, it's just a matter of how do i fix it?

Hey Haki! Good question, I looked at your code and the issue is an easy fix . You referred to it as an image, you need to see it as a background, it's not the image that gets bigger, it's the box itself. Small text needs a small box, big text needs a big box, whenever you make the text bigger, the box becomes bigger and your image adapts since your background is set to cover. You have 2 options here: 1. give a fixed size to the box and adjust the text 2. make the background image fixed. I suggest method 1 since it's better for beginners. Good luck , let me know if you need anything else!
