  You’re welcome =) Here are the steps for cropping your header photo:

  1 – log into your backend at ificandoit2017.wordpress.com/wp-admin

  2 – In the main menu, go to Appearance > Customize.

  3 – In the new menu that appears, choose Header Image.

  4 – Under Current header, click the button called Add new image (even though you just want to crop your current image).

  5 – Select the same image you now are using. You do this simply because you’ll now be able to crop the image in the next step.

  6 – Use the handles to drag the edges of the adjustable square to crop the image to the preferred size. After you are satisfied with how your image looks, click the Crop image button in the lower right corner.

  7- Since you are inside the Customizer, all the changes you are making is just work in progress, and not actually saved before you decide to do so. If you are happy with your changes, click the Save and Publish button in the top left corner.

  8 – go back to the frontend of your site, and see if you’re happy.
