    Hi!

    I want to have a one page website like this:

    http://chriscmerritt.com/

    What code should I use? How many pixels should the background be in Photoshop?
    I am a noob :p

    I just want the background to be like the site i linked to. And I do not want any scrolling.

    Please help.

    Thanks!

    Well, you probably want to use html for such a simple website design, maybe css if you're ambitious. As for the background image, I'd make it no wider than 800 pixels, but it really depends on what type of background you want. Good Luck!

    for such a simple site, just use HTML and the background size no bigger than 800px

    HTML, CSS, you could use some JQuery to have some clickable content. You can use a fixed background to accomplish what he did, and just use a background color to fill in the rest. You could also create a background that will tile across the page giving the illusion of infinite space.

    Yea if you are kind of OK with photoshop you can use a good brush to make a unique background for yourself and as 'hkmike' , 'honlude' and 'socialmissive' say you could use html css and a bit a jquery to rock things!

    Ask us here if you want to achieve any particular thing coding wise and can't quite figure how to do that. Good luck :)
