Margin between jumbotron and content increases when shrinking window


I'm so close to finally getting my jumbotron image to shrink to fit viewport when resizing smaller, but now when I do it increases the bottom margin the smaller I make it. Easy fix?

Solution

  • I've messed around quite a bit with your code. The height: 600px for .jumbotron is throwing it off. Here's what I think you're looking for... let me know.

    @media screen and (max-width: 900px) {
      body .jumbotron {
        background-size: 900px;
        background-position: left -50px center;
      }
    }
    .jumbotron {
        padding: 0;
      height: 90vmin; /* Here you can change the height */
      width: 100%;
        background-image:url('http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-CIy9X0Vwlko/VFvyStJbP_I/AAAAAAAACys/Ze7QVlcVmX0/s1600/HOPE%2BLogo%2Bcopy.jpg');
        background-repeat: no-repeat;
        background-size: 100%;
        background-color: #efeeec;
      background-position: left center;
      overflow: hidden;
        position: relative;
    }
    .jumbotron h1 {
          color: #fff;
          font-size: 60px;  
          font-family: 'Love Ya Like A Sister', cursive;
          font-weight: bold;
    }
    .jumbotron p {
        font-size: 30px;
        color: #A80000;
    }
    <div class="jumbotron">

    <div class="container">
