    I am trying to have  a spiral like effect on the main page of book card. I would like to know the best way to do that while maintaining the responsive behaviour.

    Should i use a spiral image that goes all the way down and use CSS to make it hang out ?? Or should i use a repeating spiral image again sticking out to the left ?

    Hi, do you want it to look like a circle like a cd instead of a book?

    I am trying to build a diary like effect with spirals, like here in this link – http://javapapers.com/

    Head over to http://www.branddiaries.com/development/
    The background image you can see currently has some spirals in it on left. You can see them by adjusting the height a bit. I want them to stick out so that the while box gives a diary effect. I would like to know how can i always make only spirals overflow.
    Also please tell me the best resolution to keep for this kind of background image.

    I don’t think the spirals look good on inner pages since it is more like a brochure effect not more like a diary book. But you can try if you want.

    You can use this custom css code to specify bg image for inner pages;

    .rm-wrapper > div > div { background: url("your-image-url-here");

    I am not planning to include spirals in innner pages. Just the outer page.
    The image i am using currently on the URL i shared above has spirals on the left. I just want to know a way to stick them out a little, or overflow outside the coverpage div, so that it shows a diary like effect.
    Or maybe i use a small spiral (like – http://www.branddiaries.com/development/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/spiral.png) and make repeat on the left side. This will be good for the responsive design i think. But again i would need to overflow it a bit.

    ok, this should work;

    #home:after {
    content: "";
    background-image: url('https://www.branddiaries.com/development/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/spiral.png');
    background-position: left top;
    background-repeat: repeat-y;
    width: 44px;
    height: 100%;
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    left: -19px;
    z-index: 1000; }
