  Hi,

  I’m wondering if anyone can help me. I am using the “Liquorice” theme, and the default header size is, 900px x 235px. The length of 900px if is fine, but I don’t want such big (235px) width/depth to it, I want it more like 900px x 160px. I have looked at the CSS coding, but can’t see anything which could be related to it.

  Help would be greatly appreciated,

  Thanks,

  Shane

  If you purcahse the Custom Design upgrade, you will be able to apply custom styles to your theme and thus reduce the height of your header.

  Give it a try by going to Appearance > Custom Design, and then in the custom CSS, insert that code (replacing the link I gave as an example by your new 160px high logo):

  #branding {
background: url("http://infusionphotography.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/your-new-160px-high-logo.jpg") repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
height: 160px;
}

  If you are satisfied with the result, you can validate and buy the purchase.

  Let me know if that helped!
