Replace background image on mobile

I'd like to replace the background header image with one that is designed to fit a vertical layout when site is viewed on mobile. Ideally text and icon sit above the person in the image, rather than to the side like they do for larger displays.

site is https://icosahedron-rust-5y3f.squarespace.com/

The image below is the one I'd like to use for mobile. I can adjust image size/dimensions if needed.

Any help greatly appreciated!

The easiest way is insert 2 images. Then use code to hide Mobile Image on Desktop, hide Desktop Image on Mobile.

You can do that, then share url again. Members on forum will help you.

Thanks for the quick reply!

But I'm not sure how to upload 2 images. Right now I have one image set as the block background. I'd like to replace it with a media query.

If I could upload 2 background images, it should be easy to hide them as needed, but I don't see an option to load second image.

Add to Home > Design > Custom CSS

@media screen and (max-width:640px) {
.homepage article section:first-child img {
    object-position: 90% 10% !important;
}
.homepage article section:first-child {
    padding-top: 0 !important;
}
}

Thanks. I've posted the code, but I'm not totally sure what that does.

I am still wrestling with this header and would love any help the community could offer.

I would like to do the same. Your code snippet: what does it do?

Thanks @tuanphan

I see what you are doing here. But is there no way of changing the picture entirely? There’s just no way to display a portrait photo on mobile:

Thank you @tuanphan, this works perfectly. 😃

Is there a way to do this same concept, but with an image placed on your page, not a background image in your banner?

@tuanphan Awesome! Thank you! I uploaded and replaced my own gif, but now the top and bottom get cut off, I changed the new image shape to square. How can I get it to fit correctly?

Hi Tuan! 

Is there any way you can help me with 2 things?

1) hide a banner image for a specific index page 

2) resize the vh of the banner image

I can't seem to target the banner image.

Currently, I have the code. The adding of the image is fine, but the original banner image is still there and sticks out from underneath.

1) hide a banner image for a specific index page 

all devices or mobile only?

2) resize the vh of the banner image

You mean banner image or background image (inserted by your CSS)?

@tuanphan Just mobile / tablet versions.

and 

Banner image!

Hello @tuanphan!

Could you please help me resolve my issue too? I use a youtube video as a homepage background but in the mobile version it appears badly cropped.

Can you suggest a solution? I am open to either adjusting the size or replacing the video with another video/image or even totally removing the video.

Thanks in advance, the link to my site is www.mellowsophymusic.com (private).
