Backgrounds and Images

    Please can you tell me how to make the background of an image smaller or so that it is not repeated? For example I have been building a custom form (both classic and card layout) and tried to customise the form by uploading one of our images. However it looks too large and then on the mobile forms app (when the list of forms shows so the customer can click), the image is far too large and does not fit in the box. Can you please assist?

    Please see screenshot.

    We can adjust the image's size in Classic Form layout by adding a custom CSS. Can you please let us know the URL of the classic form you have created?

    Meanwhile, for Card Form as well as on the thumbnail that is shown on the Mobile App, unfortunately, we do not have control over this, you would have to resize the image somewhere else like in an image editor, before uploading it to your form.

    Hi Vanessa, here is the URL to two examples, thank you.

    Is there a way you can make the boxes on mobile forms (app the second screenshot), different colours or pictures?

    Please note that we can only use custom CSS on the classic forms and the image you're trying to make as background seems to be small in size.

    Kindly try using a larger size image background and let us know how it goes.

    Regarding the mobile form app, it is not possible to change the colors of the forms when you view them. The app shows a snippet of the form's background when you view them in the JotForm mobile Form app.
