  Header images size for the Full Frame theme recommends a size of 1200 × 500 pixels, but when I enter into those dimension for the image and upload it looks beyond awful. The closest I have come is just doing the dimensions for the long edge at 1200 pixels, but it still does not look good. Any ideas what I should actually size the image too?

  What are you saying here?
  1. Aspect Ratio has changed.
  2. Image has been cropped
  3. Something Else

  The recommended size is said to be 1200×500 pixels. I set it to that exporting from LR. However when I upload it looks so distorted. I wish I could add a picture. It is very pixelated and choppy looking. The file size does not fit the full frame to make the picture look crisp and clear.

  When I change the size to 1200 Long edge only it looks better but still really bad image quality. I’ve tried every size near that I can think of, cropping, not cropping, etc.
