  I can’t upload my customised logo as a header. No matter what size I shrink the jpeg down to, when I upload the image and get to the crop and publish screen, the bottom third of the image is shaded grey and I can’t get the selection window to expand further. Even when I resave the jpeg down to 700 x 144 pixels it still cuts off the bottom third of the logo.

  Your theme requires the header image to be 950 × 200 pixels.

  If you upload a 700 x 144 image, it will be stretched to match the closest furthest dimension and then cropped to fit, which is why you’re losing part of it.

  Try saving it as 950 × 200 pixels before uploading.

  Doesn’t work. because it’s a logo I can’t really change the x/y ratio anyway.

  Can you try centering it on a black or white background that matches 950 × 200 pixels?
