  Hi there, just trying to edit my site logo. I have tried using

  #masthead .site-logo {max-height: __px; max-width: __px; }
  which will edit values up to a certain point, but I cannot increase the size of the logo when i get past the original image size ( 257×138). I would just like the logo to be nicely squared into the corner on desktop, and it looks like it would appear fine in mobile centered in the bar. Should i just upload a larger version of the image?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi @wildhorizonscrossfit!

  You are correct, the image won’t go beyond it’s original size, unless you set specific width and height values using CSS – but that would also cause the image to become distorted or blurry.

  You could upload a larger copy. The theme will limit the logo to a maximum width of 314 and a maximum height of 192, so you’ve got a bit of room to make it bigger use a larger image!
