  I have an image that is less than what the theme states I should use for the header image. It says it should be 1000 x 200. My image is 800 x 95. But when I upload the image, it is zoomed in and not centered. Looking at the css in the developer tools, the background-size property is set to cover. I changed it to contain in the dev tools, and made my image look correct. I believe this is an error in your css for this theme. When do you think this could be fixed so I can add my image again and have it display correctly?

  Thank you,
  Norm Wirth

  Hi sitemasterpack110,

  The difference between cover and contain is that “cover” fills the whole header space with your image where “contain” scales the image proportionally.

  Here is a great post on David Walsh of Mozilla’s personal blog explaining the difference between these two properties:

  This is not a theme bug, simply the way the theme was designed. Here are some suggestions:
  1) Resize your image to the suggested width and height. Some of it will still get cropped in some cases but not as much
  2) Add Custom Design to your site via one of our plans to customize the header CSS.
  3) Try another theme
