How to correctly scale a background image - css

I've got a 8192x8192 image which should be used as a background image. It shows the image but only the half and I've got no clue how to scale the height correctly.
My CSS code:
body {
background: url('../img/atlas.png') no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;}


Is it what you want?
body {
background: url(https://source.unsplash.com/IvfoDk30JnI/1500x1000) no-repeat center center fixed;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
}

Background top cutting from image

I have a site on which the background of the image gets cut off even if the height is increased. How can I have the top area of the image on the page too?
.top-area {
background: url(../img/matt.png) no-repeat center center fixed;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
height: 677px;
}

Change .top-area to this. You're using fixed background attachment, so you need to modify the background position to clear your navigation (which is 78px tall), so move the background image down 78px. I also added a margin-top of 28px to .top-area so the div will clear your header, too.
.top-area {
background: url(../img/matt.png) no-repeat center 78px fixed;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
height: 677px;
min-height: 100%;
margin-top: 28px;
}

It's happening because you used navbar position fixed. if you want to use this add
body{padding-top:78px;}
or
.top-area{margin-top:28px;}

CSS Background Image Cut Off

I've looked at a other similar thread and can't seem to find the answer.
Look at the shield background image. It's cut off slightly at the top and bottom... I've tried a lot of things but I can't get it to display properly.
Here is the site http://revivedlife.com
Here's the css for the background image:
.hentry h2 {
background: url(images/post_element.png) no-repeat 0 -4px;
display: inline-block;
}

Try replacing your existing css with this:
.hentry h2 {
background: url(LOCATION HERE) no-repeat center center fixed;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
}
This will make sure the background image looks correct, even on old browsers.

Have you tried background-size: cover;
I think the following code may help you :)
.hentry h2 {
background-attachment: fixed;
background-image: url("http://revivedlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/bg_body.jpg");
background-position: left top;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
}

Background image in fullscreen

I use this code to show image full screen in my desktop
<style>
body{
background: url("under-constraction1.jpg")no-repeat fixed 0 0 / cover ;
}
</style>
but in mobile in Firefox browser a piece of my image is shown
how can I fix it?

Use this
body{
background: url("under-constraction1.jpg") no-repeat center center fixed
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
}

body{
width:100%;
height: 100%;
background-image: url("./images/under-constraction1.jpg");
background-position: center;
background-size: 100% 100%;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}

Responsive Image Background

I have a picture as my background but I can't figure out how to make my code responsive such that the image stays consistent when I decrease the browser window.Here is my code:
body {
margin-top: 50px;
}
.full {
background: url(../melissa.jpg) no-repeat center center fixed;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
}

If you want a responsive background look at this SAMPLE
.full {
height: 500px;
background-image: url('image.jpg');
background-position: center top;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
}

This will make it responsive for you.
Just add the height and width to 100%.
.full {
position: relative;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background: url(../melissa.jpg) no-repeat center center scroll;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
}

Actually, I'm assuming .full is a div which contains the background you want right? if that's the case, the width and height set to 100% will only make the div that big, which may still not work as he's using 100% to the height and thus you would need to set 100% to the body or any other container that .full is in. You can just set the background-size: cover, background-position:center center, backgorund-repeat:norepeat, and just give .full it's height and width. That should make the backgound always filling the whole container.

how to make the background the same as the div size in css

I'm developing a website and I need to know how can I make the background the same size of the div in the css .. I'm trying to make the BG size auto but it doesn't works > So does any one know a solution for that
!!
Thanks

#header {
background: url(images/bg.jpg) no-repeat center center fixed;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
}

Try:
{
background: url(bgimage.jpg) no-repeat;
background-size: 100%;
}
