Cool Graphic Links

Backgrounds are one of the major mainstays of most websites

 

The following Web sites and backgrounds are completely free to use on any personal, commercial, or non-profit Web site, blog, etc. I will continue to add more links and more backgrounds as I find them. I would like a link back to www.coolgraphiclinks.com but it is not necessary. But it will help others to find this site so they can enjoy the stuff on here also. Backgrounds are a great way to make your websites more personalized. Check out the textures page as they are great for backgrounds also.

Adding a background will make your website much more pleasing to the eye. Using a noisy or too heavily textured background might make reading the text difficult to read. When adding a background, make sure the graphic is not too large. Large ones will slow down the loading time of the website. The maximum size should not be more than 10kb. The graphic will repeat until the page is full. Make sure that you use a seamless graphic so there are no lines all over the page. I refer to use a light colored graphic for most work, but I have used dark colored and made the text light colored.  

 

 

When adding pictures it graphic links, make sure that aren't too flashy or to busy. There is nothing more annoying that a graphics that is bright and flashing really fast. It distracts the visitor from reading your website. Too many lively graphics will also slow down the loading time of the site. Many people are still on dial up and it will add a great lag to the speed of their download.
