Customizable Backgrounds


 

We wanted to take this opportunity to prove that we have some of the most customizable templates in our industry!  We have taken the same template and customized just the background with a few different images to exemplify the customizable features that you can get with PhotoBiz!

 

 

 

Color Picker:  The backgrounds are very customizable starting with the basic color.  We have a custom color picker that allows you to change the color of just about everything on your website.  This feature starts with the basic 256 color swatches to choose from but goes further with the ability to put in your own Hexadecimal values!  Do you have a very specific color that you are trying to match in your image?  You can use our color picker to retrieve the Hex value for a spot within your photo!
*Background colors can be changed with ALL PhotoBiz Templates, Color Shifting with each image applies to select templates in the Full Screen Collection described below.

 

 

Upload a JPEG:  If you would like to take it a step further, you can create a JPEG texture or use an image to upload into the background of your website.  This could be anything you would like to use:  One of your images, integrate your logo, or design something really unique to match your brand.  Here is a current PhotoBiz user that just happens to be an amazing airbrush artist.  Using the same template as the others displayed here, he created a really unique background to fit his style and branding.
*Feature available for all Full Screen Templates.

Upload a PNG:  If you would like to customize your site even more, you can make parts of your image transparent and save it as a PNG File.  Many of our Full Screen Templates now have the color shifting abilities, which allows you to customize your background color with each and every image, this can also adjust your background appearance!
*PNG upload available with all Full Screen Templates
* Color Shifting Templates:  Runway, Gameshow, Cameleon, Bronx, Indy, Manhattan, Charlotte

 

 

Border Padding:  Our templates have a customized look paired with functionality for every user!  No matter if you are looking at your website from a small Netbook screen or a large IMac monitor, your images will not be cut off and the image along with its background and design will reformat to fit each size.  Also, you can resize the frame that your image appears in.  If you are using one of the older templates, you may be interested in switching to Full Screen and using the border padding feature.  This could make a large Full Screen Template look just like our traditional, classic, designer, or organic collection templates as you add more padding around the image.   The images below are a good representation of this feature. 
*Border Padding is available with all Full Screen Templates!

 

 

We encourage you to play around with these fun new templates and try out the new features.  As we encourage you to be creative and use our new features, we are introducing our NEW PHOTOBIZ FACEOFF COMPETITION!  We are looking for the best background created!  You will have until October 31st to submit your website for a chance to WIN A FREE SUB SITE!!  You will then be given a month to vote.  Check out the PhotoBiz Faceoff competition on the right side of this blog!

    I find backgrounds are great to add to the overall feel of the photo when using it as wall art, if you’ve done a photo shoot and they want it as a canvas print for example. The grafitti background loks great btw
