Background Images on startup themes way too big?

Hi All - longtime lurker, first time I've not been able to find an exact answer just by browsing old posts. I've started applying some Startup Themes for bigbox, and I've discovered that regardless of whichever theme I use, 99% of the time the background image that gets displayed is always blown up so big that it looks a) low quality, and b) it's only showing the like the top left quarter of whatever the image is.

I've tried messing with image priorities and different themes, but it's almost always the same. Any ideas?

Most Startup themes use Background images to fill the screen. So make sure in your image priorities for Background you have Fanart at the top. I would then put other full screen type images in line like Screenshots. Other smaller type images like clear logos if they get displayed tend to get blown up like you are seeing.

Yeah it was the clear logos - I thought I'd unticked it, but it turns out I hadn't. One of those dumb things where it was literally the very first thing I checked, and then because I somehow missed it, I spent forever checking just about everything else haha. Cheers for the answer all the same
