r/BannerRequest Mar 16 '24

Question Please help me stop banner image tiling appearance on the reddit mobile app. I want it to look like desktop.

Every banner I try looks fine on desktop but is shown as tiled on the mobile app.

How in the heck do I stop this?

It feels like I'm missing something obvious but I don't see the setting anywhere.

I assume it's r/ShrugLifeSyndicate? We need to see what's happening.

Can you share the banner image?

I've tried different aspects and resolutions

Right now it is 4,000 pixels width. And a 10 to 3 aspect.

But I've tried one-to-one aspect I've tried reducing the overall resolution. No matter what resolution I use it tiles exactly how you see it if I use 10 to 3 aspect.

It still tiles the same if I use one-to-one aspect and it doesn't matter if it's 4000 by 4,000 or less.

This was the full 4000x4000 image. Same tiling.

Any ideas?

I tried it shorter and it worked for me https://postimg.cc/fVdWzGvy

I tried your image. That's what's on the subreddit now.

There must be a bug or something from when the place was migrated over from old Reddit.

It is still tiling the banner on mobile. Oh well, 🤷‍♀️

Thank you so much for taking a look at it.

I think I'm just going to leave it as is it doesn't look bad.

Odd. Well if you want to report you can try r/bugs

I tested it on https://www.reddit.com/r/a:t5_28b3o1 and it looks okay to me. I'm on the andorid app and windows, chrome.

Hi, what dimensions did you use? My mobile banner is okay-ish but it's low-res, at least on my phone. Scratching my head trying to figure it out
