Customization of background images in themes
PollUnit Themes can change the appearance of your polls and surveys to match your brand image or design preferences. The themes include various visual elements such as color schemes, fonts, background images, and layout options.
Especially the use of background images can have a significant impact on the visual appearance of a poll or survey and create an appealing atmosphere. However, background images also have an influence on the loading speed. A fast loading speed improves the user experience and contributes to a high participation rate. It is thus one of the most important aspects when choosing an Poll Maker. For this reason, we have adapted the processing of the background images to the latest web standards.
An important aspect of processing background images is adapting them to different screen resolutions and devices. PollUnit Themes offer optimized responsive rendering of background images that ensures they look equally good on mobile devices, tablets and desktops. For this purpose, we create several derivatives with different aspect ratios and resolutions in WebP (a modern image format, with excellent compression for web images). Depending on the device, only the necessary section of the image is downloaded. A small cell phone will get a low-resolution portrait format, and a desktop computer with a graphics monitor will get a high-resolution landscape format.
For you, the creation of the themes remains as uncomplicated as before. You upload your image and we create the derivatives automatically. For optimal support of all aspect ratios, we recommend an image with a minimum resolution of 1920x1920 pixels. You can't do anything with that? No problem, just upload the photo as is and we'll take care of the rest.
One more note: the theme background images are images that fill the screen behind the interface. Images that contain logos and lettering are not suitable. But you can also add a dedicated logo to your theme or more images in the description of your PollUnit.
If you are missing options in our themes, please write a feature request. We are looking forward to your ideas.
