The size of your Wix background image is important for both aesthetic and functional purposes. Aesthetically, you want to choose an image that is large enough to fill the entire screen, but not so large that it looks pixelated or blurry. Functionally, you want to choose an image that is small enough to load quickly, but not so small that it doesn’t provide enough information.
There are a few different ways to determine the size of your Wix background image. One way is to look at the dimensions of your screen. Most screens are between 1366×768 and 1920×1080 pixels. If your image is smaller than these dimensions, it will look pixelated when stretched to fill the entire screen. If your image is larger than these dimensions, it will take longer to load and may be cut off on some screens.

Another way to determine the size of your Wix background image is to look at the file size. The file size is usually listed in kilobytes (KB) or megabytes (MB). The larger the file size, the longer it will take to load. You want to choose an image that has a small file size so that it loads quickly, but not so small that it looks pixelated.
The ideal size for a Wix background image is between 500KB and 1MB. This will ensure that the image loads quickly and looks sharp on all screens.
