Forum Background Size

I am having trouble locating the forum background image size . I have tried adding different background images on my own but they always end up  being too small ( and I don't want the repeat effect ) . Any help with this would be great . Thank-you .

The forum background size depends upon the user viewing.
For example, I'm browsing using a 1920x1080 screen resolution, where as some people use larger, others use smaller.

The best type of background is one that can repeat flawlessly - such as a pattern.
However you could take a look at: css-tricks.com/perfect-full-page-background-image/

No problem. Just keep in mind a couple of things:

1. The smaller the image in pixels, the more it will need to upscale for larger resolutions. Thus meaning, the quality will decrease. That looks good though and fine, on my 1920 - if that helps.
2. To beat the above problem, the only way I can think of is to use a HD wallpaper in the first place (something such as 2,000 x 2,000 px). But obviously that's not too beneficial in the long run because it could take forever to load for those on not-so-fast internet.
