Motif header
-
Yesterday I was customizing a header in Motif. It suggested an image that was 900×1600. I created what I wanted and uploaded. Perfect. But I had one thing that I wanted to correct. Today I made the correction and uploaded. Suddenly, instead of a header, it’s a small little rectangle in the corner of the page. When I went to re-load, I noticed that the limit was 330×110. Hmmm.
Now I spent quite a bit of time on this project yesterday. I cleared my cashe thinking it was just imaging wrong. Nope. It’s as if the theme was changed over night.
Anybody?

Are you referring to this HUGE image that is not optimized for the web?

If you are then it’s appearing as a background image not as a header.

Also note what the detailed theme description states:
Custom Header
Motif supports a custom header image that you can use to upload your own logo. You can choose to display the header text or hide it.To upload your image, go to Appearance → Header. The maximum size of the image is 320 x 110 pixels. http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/motif/

I’m having the same issue. The initial upload worked great. I wanted to make a change and any further image is subject to the 320×110 limit… which is useless for what I want to do. Is there a way to change this limit with CSS?

devunlaw. I’ve found that the original header that I uploaded and applied to the motif theme is still there and I can still use it at it’s full size.
For thistimethisspace my blog is thedesignflaw.wordpress.com, but it’s not available right now as I’m doing a DNS change with my registrar to get my domain that I bought with them to play with my premium wordpress.com.
