Content Section Fields

Content Section Fields

Content > Sections

Content - This is the main content block and can use the custom monklets or normal page content.

Dark Background - Selecting this checkbox displays the content in a lighter color on top of the site default dark section background color.

Image - Images assigned to this field display behind the content with a parallax/page scroll effect at the desktop view.  This means the background image is fixed and the the interior content will scroll over the background image as the user moves down the page.  This effect requires the image to be fixed to the users screen.  There is not a specific set size requirement, but a recommended size would be 1400px in width and a minimum of 400px in height.  Also, note that you will need to select the "Dark Background" checkbox for most images.
