== Creating a Background Image ==
[[Image:Backdrop_scales.png|thumb|350px|Two backgrounds automatically rescaled by Whirled.  The left image was very tall, making the avatar size default small.  The right image was very small, making the avatar size default large.  You can see this effect at work in [http://www.whirled.com/#world-s29138 Rampage City].|right]]A backdrop image can be any image file or even a Flash swf.  There are a variety of [[List_of_useful_programs#Raster_Graphics|image editing programs]] you can use to resize or even create your image files to suit your room.

=== Dimensions ===
*Whirled backdrops display at '''500 pixels''' tall, and can be any width.
*Images of any other height will be resized to fit 500 pixels.  This effects the default size of the "Actors," or avatars & pets, and "Furniture," or furniture, toys, game launchers, images, and videos.
**As a default, taller images will display the room contents as small, including the avatars.
**As a default, shorter images will display the room contents as large, including the avatars.

You can adjust the size of the room contents by changing the "Actors" and "Furniture" properties when editing your backdrop's settings in Whirled.
