    And yes, adding multiple versions of the header image to avoid wastage bandwidth also sounds a great idea.

    Hi Andy,
    Thank you for sharing.
    Your image responds beacutifully. I had used some other way ( two containers, inner for content+overlay and outer for the background image). I did set background-size:cover and position to center, center. That saves a lot. My implementation is working but is not the best thing(specially on small screens).

    I like your concept of using proper ratio and cropping. Thank you for all the explanations.

    Here is the code for the modfied function

    http://pastebin.com/DNYqJpjZ

    It is almost same of the core handler with 2 small changes. I did not like copying the whole function and I have dropped the idea of multiple cover image for now, It needs more work in BuddyPress core. I will be opening a ticket, If things get in the right direction, the above task could be accomplished in 4-5 lines without any duplication of code.

    For now, Please use the above code. Please do let me know if that works for you or not?

    Hi Brajesh

    This worked. Thank you.

    Yes, I’ve read a similar issue with image cropping on the BuddyPress forums, and the code you provided I think would solve others cover image issues too, so I think it will be beneficial for BuddyPress to add those 3 or 4 lines of code to their core.

    I’ve got everything perfect now though, thanks for your help 🙂

    Thank you Andy 🙂
    I am certainly opening a ticket in a day or two.

    I am glad everything is working for you. All the best with your project 🙂

    Please do let me know if you need any help in future.

    Thank you
