How to Select and Change a CSS Background Image

  1. Open the HeyBoss Editor:

    Log in to your HeyBoss account and navigate to the page you want to edit.

  2. Locate the Section with a Background Image:

    Hover over different sections. Areas using background-image will now be highlighted and clickable, just like regular images.

  3. Select the Background Image:

    Click on the highlighted background area. The image selection panel will open.

  4. Choose or Upload a New Image:

    Pick an image from your library or upload a new one. You’ll see a preview before confirming your choice.

  5. Save Your Changes:

    Click Save to apply the new background image to your section.

Tips for Using CSS Background Images

  • Use high-resolution images for large backgrounds to avoid pixelation.

  • Try different background repeat and position settings in the style panel for unique effects.

  • Combine background images with overlays or gradients for added depth.

  • Preview your design on both desktop and mobile to ensure the image displays well everywhere.

Example Use Case

Suppose you want to update your homepage hero section. Previously, you could only swap images set with <img> tags. Now, if your hero uses a CSS background-image, you can simply click the section and choose a new image—no need to edit code or ask a developer!
