About the default image images

When customizing the default images described in the following table, you may need to "force refresh" your browser to bypass the cache and load the new image.

home-background.jpg	Backdrop image on the sample portal home page. Customize the image by replacing the home-background.jpg image in assets manager by uploading your own version using the same name and relative file size (3000 pixels by 1996 pixels). Alternatively, you can use a different filename and update the SCSS styles, as described in Customizing your background image.
