Hello everyone,

We've reopened the background change issue. The previous background image had low resolution, and we're in search of a high-quality replacement. If you have a stunning background image in mind, please share it in the comments. Your contribution is appreciated! 🌄

Is this image good enough for the background? It's light and make the text readable and also looks good if cropped because of screen size.

[MrAshwin2142]

Thank you for your excellent suggestion regarding the background image. We believe it's a fantastic choice! 🌄
Could you please proceed with changing the background to this image and creating a pull request to implement the update?

[JohnPatrickAncajas]

Will do! I'll follow that update after the previous one I'm working on so it would be separate in case of an error.

Hello Sir,

I'm very interested in being a part of this project. I have some high-quality background images that I believe would be suitable. I'll send the images through a direct message. Thank you very much!

[MrAshwin2142]

hello @pheb2014939ctu thank you for showing interest in contributing, but @JohnPatrickAncajas already working on this, you can explore any other issue from the list or add any other issue to the enhancement

[pheb2014939ctu]

It's OK. If there are any new issues that need attention, I'm more than willing to contribute to the project. Whether it's sourcing a new high-resolution background image or any other related matter, count me in to help find a solution. Your efforts in improving the project are greatly appreciated! 🌄

[JohnPatrickAncajas]

Hello! I have tested the background and unfortunately, I do not think it would look good since the branches in this image blends with the text making it not so readable at that parts. You can help if you want to @pheb2014939ctu by sourcing images then I can try or I can pass this to you.

[JohnPatrickAncajas]

Here is a sample of the text over the branch which makes it hard to read. I can change the colors but I think black is still the best so another image is preferable.

[MrAshwin2142]

@pheb2014939ctu if you have any other better image, you can contribute or we can change text change to make it more readable

[JohnPatrickAncajas]

I found this one that looks good but it has some conflicts at mobile layout as you can see. Should I keep looking? or I can also do responsive backgrounds so its different for mobile instead

[pheb2014939ctu]

@MrAshwin2142
Sure, if you make a full request for me , I'll add the image for your review.

[pheb2014939ctu]

Which option would you prefer to select? Additionally, may I contribute more quotes to this website?

[JohnPatrickAncajas]

You can add your quotes @pheb2014939ctu ! Specially if your helping this much

[MrAshwin2142]

@JohnPatrickAncajas just added a suitable background image, we can change the background image with every Quote.
@pheb2014939ctu you can contribute to that. if you want we can create an issue for this and assign it to you.

[JohnPatrickAncajas]

I was just thinking of that, but changing it every hour! If you want help then I can join you @pheb2014939ctu, specially at the JavaScript.

[pheb2014939ctu]

@MrAshwin2142
Could you kindly assign the task of adding a background image to me now, please?

[MrAshwin2142]

@pheb2014939ctu i have added new issue just comment on that i will assign you

[pheb2014939ctu]

Dear @MrAshwin2142 , could you kindly open this issue and assign it to me? I'm eager to complete this task. I would greatly appreciate it if you could refrain from closing this. In my opinion, changing the images and quotes every 5 minutes might be too lengthy.

[pheb2014939ctu]

Considering the available background options, the approach of changing the background every 5 minutes results in a dynamic and regularly evolving environment, providing users with a consistently fresh experience.

[MrAshwin2142]

looks good ...
