image loaded with background-image doesn't show up

Question

I\'m really confused, I\'m trying to create a landing page with an icon and some buttons, but I can\'t manage to make the background image I\'m using show up, even if it\'s load

Answer 1

Since I don't have reputation enough to comment, I'll post it here.

Jsfiddle

.row {
  height: <define height here>;
}

height: 100%;

The height: 100% will make it the same height of it's parent element, which is 'row'.

Cheers

Answer 2

The tryhard div lacks dimensions (width, height). Set some values for height and width or add some content (currently it is an empty div without padding, so it is 0 x 0) and you will see your background image
