  So, after browsing some blogs on WordPress, i’ve seen some websites using the Digg 3 Column theme, but with a bigger header.

  I know this is possible with CSS coding, but I’m unable to find the code to make the header bigger. D:

  Some examples are:

  and http://hsaofcp.com/

  Please help. D:

  We can’t help without a link to your blog.

  What you need to do is to get Firebug add-on for Firefox, learn how to use it and then you can investigate these other blogs and see how they have done it. Firebug is not that hard to learn to use and will be a great tool if you take the time to learn it. It would not take long to be up and running it and getting your own answers. That way you don’t have to wait on other people to design things for you. You can do it yourself.

  The height and width is specified in #header.

  Seriously, get the firebug add-on and learn how to use it. Anyone doing CSS should have it as it makes things much easier to figure out.

  WordPress.com does not provide direct support or training for CSS. Please read what it says here:

  Here is some sound advice for our users when developing with CSS:
  1. Develop your stylesheets offline.
  2. Do NOT simply copy and paste your theme’s current stylesheet into the editing window. This will break any relative links (such as those pointing to images used by your theme). Should you choose to do this anyway, you will need to update all image URLs and file references (such as background images).
  3. Use a validation service, like this one.
  4. Use Firefox as your browser and download the Web Developer Toolbar https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/60 or Firebug add-on http://getfirebug.com/, which allows you to edit stylesheets on a live page.

  @icp, I told you where to change the height in your stylesheet. It is under #header.
