 * Hi,
    I would like to make the background image that appears in the bit top section
   responsive so it expands the width of the browser without having that other color
   background. Is this possible?

 * Are you saying that you want the background image to cover the entire viewport,
   behind the text? Eliminate the white header section and the various beige etc
   sections in between?

 * Place this is your child theme’s style.css at the very bottom and see if it fixes
   your problem.
 * body.home.blog.custom-background {
    background-size: cover; }
 * Is that what you are hoping for?

 * Hi Frank,
 * I see that you’ve posted this question twice in the forums. First of all, I’ve
   replied in the other forum thread so please check it and let me know if it works.
 * And second, please don’t post your question more than once, as it’s against WordPress
   forum guidelines. 🙂
 * Regards,
    Hardeep
