  Hi you all!

  I’m having trouble with my design. I recently changed the post width and default photo width from 800 to 900px. It worked okay, except I also need the header to be larger – 1060px to be precise (it’s 960 px now). It seems like the theme won’t let me make it larger though. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

  Thank you so much!

  Actually, the new images didn’t turn out to be 900px at all, only 864 (???) even though they’re set to be 900. If someone have any clue on this as well please help me! Thank you thank you thank you.

  Hi Maja, give the following a try.

  .site-header img {
      width: 100%;
  }

  P.S. My step daughter’s name is Maja. :)

  Yes yes yes that worked for the header, thank you so much!
  And what a great name may I add. :) hehe

  Do you have any clue about the image width problem?

  On the image widths, I believe this has to do with the width setting for .entry-content, which is set at 83.333%. Try the following CSS, which sets it to 85%, which seems to get the left and right white space equal and the images seem to measure out at exactly 900px.

  .entry-header, .entry-content, .entry-summary, .search-results .page .entry-header, .single div.entry-meta {
  width: 85%;
  }
