I have a background up on one of my story pages; the problem is, is that the reader can't see the entire thing. Is there a way to make it so the entire background can be viewable at once? My image for the background is a journal entry that has realistic handwriting, lines, basically like an actual journal page instead of just the words on a white page, and it would be too small for people to read if it's set up as a regular pic.

I don't really understand. You can resize the picture to be whatever size you want, so viewing it shouldn't be an issue unless it's just a small picture.

I'd rather not have it as a regular picture unless absolutely necessary. What I want to do is make it so the background fits the page instead of being cut off on the edges.

Cut off? Make the picture the size of the page then (should be 800 by 600). Then when you make it the background image, it will fit.

Your alternative is making it a normal picture and resizing it till it fits the page.

I've dealt with this problem, actually. I kept resizing the picture repeatedly and nothing worked ... until I realized that the size wasn't the problem, it was what the editor was doing to the picture on its own. I put a white border around my picture that was just big enough so that the white part was what got cut off and the picture was displayed properly. 

Well, since I currently don't have anything to add that in, could you please help me? It's here.

You can't use paint?

I don't have any apps at all on this thing. No photoshop, no paint, nothing. Well, I have security, but that's it. We had to wipe it to get rid of a virus.

There. White border. Let me know if the proportions are off, I need to get off the computer for a bit so I rushed this.

Thank you. :)
