  Hi, everytime i insert a image to the header using the appearance, customize, header option; it blows up the image really big and saves it as a jpeg. how do i add my logo to header left as a png file so the white background on my header would not show up.

  Hi,

  All cropped images are automatically converted to a JPG (which loses the transparent background). To avoid this, you will need to create a header PNG image with the exact dimensions of the header image on the theme (960 x 115 px). If you save the PNG file that size, it shouldn’t get converted to a JPG file and should preserve the formatting.

  This is explained under the “Important:” aside here:

  Let me know if you need anything else!
