You can apply full page backgrounds outside of the slide area by adding a ```data-background``` attribute to your ```<section>``` elements.

 Backgrounds transition using a fade animation by default. This can be changed to a linear sliding transition by passing ```backgroundTransition: 'slide'``` to the ```Reveal.initialize()``` call.
