Question

How does ones scale a background image with CSS? The image is attached with CSS, and I would like to scale it to fit a certain width

Answer 1

You may try the following code:

.aboutpic {
width: 150px; /* replace 150px with something you need */ 
float: left;
background-image: url(../images/aboutpic.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center;
background-size: 100%;
height: 139px; /* replace 139 px with something you need */
}

Then in the html just put:

<div class="aboutpic"></div>

It works. I tested it.
