 * Hi, I want to add a background image for my sidebar widgets. I dont know whether
   I should design an image as a specific size and use that ( which may be untidy?)–
   or if I can get some sort of ‘responsive background image plugin’ for widgets?

 * Thank you

 * You could try this:
 *     ```
       .widget {
         background-image: url(path-to-image.jpg);
         background-size: contain;
       }
       ```
