Description
Manage large adaptive (mobile-ready) images and automatically apply them to areas on your WordPress site as backgrounds.
Pull beautiful photos from Unsplash using the in-built browser, or supply your own images from uploads and supplied URLs.
Usage
Once activated, go to Appearance > Nice Backgrounds. You can create one or more ‘sets’ of background images with
different settings.
Note: This plugin typically deals with resizing very large images, if you’re having problems make sure your memory limit
is sufficiently high enough to deal with some occasional heavy lifting.
Note: PNG images that are either very large or are 24-bit can be problematic. The exact details of this are yet to be
determined.

list of stuff I looked at to get some ideas of what to do for this plugin:
