Fullscreen image as background: What image size should be the original file?

Hello adobe users,

 

I'm creating for my first time a website which uses a photograph as the main background. This will be fullscreen. Her eyou have some examples:

http://www.flemingsteele.com/

http://www.benthomsonphoto.com/

Always better one image than 1000 of words.

 

My question is quite basic: What is the perfect image size the photograph should be for a fullscreen-image-background?

 

Is there any tips the photographer should take in place?

Any special mode?

Which format should it be?

What quality and weight should it have?

Should it be Panoramic? Rectangular?

 

I'm very concerned that the raw material (the original pictures) compromise the final product. I want to create the website so it can adapt any screen resolutions. Can anybody help around?!

 

Dani

    This really isn't the type of topic for discussion on this forum. Here we talk about the relationship between Photoshop Elements and Photoshop.com, which largely includes questions about uploading phography, but is not about building or designing websites. Such questions would get better answers on the Dreamweaver forum.
