### Features

I really liked the [theme shared way back in 2016](https://meta.discourse.org/t/a-graceful-style-for-discourse/43429) by @jsthon 😍. They haven’t been around since it was initially posted, so I’ve updated it, expanded it, and added it to github.

 ![graceful theme example](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/b/8/b8954e01130435768e28041f009961982a448b28.jpg)

### Settings

| Name | Description |
| --- | --- |
| background image | Enter image url |
| tile background | |
| no background image | Disable the background image and tiling settings above. |

This theme has three settings:

- A field to add your own background image
- An option to tile it
- And an option to remove both of the above options

If you disable the tile option, the image will be set to `background-size: cover`, and your browser will scale your image to proportionately cover the full background. For example:
