  Hi there,
  It’s clearly written in the theme description in the “Quick Specs (all measurements in pixels)” section. :)

  Here are the details: “Recommended header size: 2560 pixels wide by 640pixels high when the Header Image Display is set to fixed, and 2560 pixels wide by 1000 pixels high when it’s set to scroll.”

  Please read all the details description about the theme from here https://wordpress.com/theme/gateway/howtopicktherightcarandproperlymaintainit.wordpress.com

  I am supposed to do this using the header editing menu, but I cannot find this menu.

  >To edit the header image please go to your_site->Appearance->Customize.
  >From the next screen click the header image from the left sidebar.
  >Click on add new image.

  Hope this helps. Please let us know here if you have more query
  Thanks

  Hi @ronaldorb,

  You can review all recommended sizes for the Gateway theme at the bottom of this page: https://wordpress.com/theme/gateway/

  In addition to what @mohammadriyad noted about menus, this guide should be helpful: https://wordpress.com/support/menus/
