Hi, i'm currently making a portfolio and trying to set a image as the background of the Jumbotron.
This is my custom css, the image shows up but its only displaying a small proportion of the full image. Can somebody give me a hint on where i'm going wrong?
Thanks

If you just wanted to be sure to see the entire image (and don't mind resizing) you could do this:
background-size: contain;
background-position: center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
And you have some other options if you don't mind aspect distortion.
