Design tips

Bandcamp recommends 1280×1440 pixels for one solid, non-repeating artist-page background. It does not require a fixed size and also lets creators repeat the background across or down the page.

  • Use 1280×1440 for a solid non-repeating background, as Bandcamp recommends.
  • Choose repeat and alignment settings to match whether the source is a tile or a full composition.
  • Treat the central area as likely to be covered by the artist page's content column.

What you need to know

Bandcamp artist-page backgrounds sit behind the central page content. Because fans use different screens, Bandcamp does not require fixed dimensions, but recommends 1280×1440 pixels for a single non-repeating image.

The design panel can repeat the image across or down the page, change its horizontal alignment and keep it fixed while the page content moves. Those controls determine whether a seamless tile or a full background composition is more appropriate.

Keep critical detail away from the central content column, which covers much of the image. Use the background for atmosphere and texture rather than information that every visitor must read.

How to create a Bandcamp artist page background at the right size

  1. 1Open Moda and create a 1280×1440-pixel canvas for Bandcamp's recommended non-repeating background.
  2. 2Keep critical detail away from the central content column and decide whether the image should repeat.
  3. 3Export the finished image and upload it from Bandcamp's design panel, then set repeat and alignment options.
