I want to use a jamroom image as a background image that's full screen. How can I get an image to be larger than 1280?

The image I am uploading is 1920px wide, the size I prefer to use.

Are you uploading it through a profile?

Actually it's being uploaded through jrProfileTweaks. I'm allowing users to choose a background for the header like twitter. 1280 is just a bit blurry on 1920x1080 monitor. I figure that's generally the largest people will use, generally.

The surface pro 4 has its display at 2736 x 1824. apple will probably make upcoming things smaller too, we'll need to have flexibility.

The image is set to background-size : cover. That is flexible.

More involved than allowing for a larger sized image, but I think something like this might be a good solution to the different device sizes and image sizes that will be needed:

But that isn't there yet, so there are several javascript solutions which temporarily fill that gap:

Isn't all that's needed an option to allow the default image to be displayed? With the issue being that huge unedited images might slip though if that setting is used.

and a minor issue being that the full size image, if huge, could be called a lot and use up bandwidth.
