Perhaps @Pacoup was trying out `background-position: 50.001% 0;` without the media query. I was tempted, too, and may investigate further.

In any case, this worked elegantly for me with a minimum of fuss. Thank you!!

I didn’t work for me before I update my background image size to 5000px. Now it works, thanks.

Whoa, talk about strong arm tactics. That they force you to “like” them speaks volumes. I have also read that if you do create an account and later delete it, they’ll keep your personal info. According to their privacy statement “some information may remain in our records after deletion of your account.”

Truth in reputation? More like: Reputation reveals truth. In this case, the rep of this company tells you how honest they really are.

I believe that honestly.com used my login credentials to secure my google contacts database and has sent ALL of my contacts the following message:

Date: Tue, 31 May 2011 13:24:46 +0300
From: mpeden [at] gmail.com
To: kevin [at] usa.alcatel.com
Subject: Hey Kevin

Kevin hey, i hated going to work http://g.msn.com.br/BR9/1369.0?http://cnbc7.com/news

I replaced the at symbol above to prevent spambots from capturing my e-mail, but you get the idea. I have almost 10,000 contacts in Google and apparently every one of them was sent this message and there was nothing I could do about it. All my friends think it came from me and there’s no way I can send out 10,000 emails to tell them it didn’t.

Really sad actually.

I agree with everyone on the sleaziness but would like to point out that there is very well a way to enter the site without facebook. I didn’t try this particular one but I’ve come across this tactic for some other sites before, and when it prompts you to Allow or Don’t Allow using facebook to log in, you simply click Don’t Allow and it brings you to a “regular” sign up page. Try that, worked for me a few times.

Tactics like that are shameful for any website though, the fact that it’s called “honestly” is just additional comedy.
