  Hi!
  I am new to this whole blogging thing and I really do not know what I am doing. Help please! : ) I have a custom header for my blog and when I view it on my computer it looks great. However, when viewed on other devices the header gets cut off and looks awkward. How do I fix this? Thanks so much!! Kat

  Hey there, the theme showcase page for the theme you are using, Gateway https://wordpress.com/themes/gateway/ says this:

  Custom Header Image
  The best custom header images are decorative background images. The image will be cropped for small viewports (not scaled down) to fit the available area fixed for height and width. This means header images that work best with this theme are abstract or decorative images.

  Because you’ve included your site title in the custom header image, it will be cut off when viewed on smaller screens. You can see the difference when using the regular Site Title font and a decorative header background on the Gateway demo site here: https://gatewaydemo.wordpress.com/ Resize the browser screen to see what I mean.

  In general, if you are just getting started, you may want to head over to https://learn.wordpress.com and also bookmark these resources for self-help for your questions https://dailypost.wordpress.com/2016/01/14/help-with-wordpress-com/

  Hope that helps!

  Hi,

  I want to change the CSS code for my logo. I am using the Gateway theme and have managed to adjust the height of my home slider, but now my logo is no longer visible. I can see that the height of the logo is 954 px so that definitely needs adjusting, to, say, 100 px. I can’t figure out what CSS to write for this though. Can anyone help me? Thanks a bunch!

  The blog I need help with is http://www.roamaniac.com.

  Cheers,

  Janneke
