So a breakdown of all the parameter components:- -Image This needs to be enclosed in speech-marks as shown in the demo above, and point to a valid image file

-Text Use this parameter to display text centered on-top of the image, leave this out if you don't want text. Defaulted to ''

-Strength Parallax effect strength (in pixel), default 100. this will define the amount of pixels the background image is translated - (type: Number)

-Height Is a numeric value of the height of the image defaulted at 500

-FontSize This is a numeric value for the font size if you used the -Text parameter default value is 20 for this parameter

blur pixel value for background image blur, default: 0 - (type: Number) or object in format {min:0, max:5} for dynamic blur depending on scroll position So the -BlurMin refers to the min: value above and is defaulted to 0 and the -BlurMax refers to the max: value above and is also defaulted to 0.

-Background Sets the background to display behind the text if you used the -Text parameter this is defaulted to transparent

-Padding This parameter is linked to the background parameter, and will give additional padding to the background behind the text displayed. It has been defaulted to 0 about 20 is a good number to use if you have used the -Text parameter use this parameter for better styling

-TextColor Allows you to choose the colour of the text being displayed ontop of the image, this is defaulted to black and is used in conjunction with the -Text and -FontSize parameter
