   A few months back, I altered my twentyten theme to change the header image (to something of the same width but a bigger height than strictly allowed in the theme template) and to add a logo in place of the words on top. I found a fantastic thread which gave detailed instructions but despite my best efforts I can't seem to find it again.

   I didn't understand the concept of child themes then so the changes have since been overwritten. I have already set up a child theme style.css but I have no idea how to alter it. I remember having to alter both the style.css as well as the header.php.

   If someone could walk me through the process, I'd be very grateful.

   Here's a good post that shows you how to create a child theme of TwentyTen and modify it:

   Here is the simplest solution I found to add a logo in front of the site title:
   Go to style.css
   Find
   #site-title a {
   and add the lines shown below:

   #site-title a {
   padding: 7px 0 7px 78px; /* allow space for image */
   background: url(images/logo.png) no-repeat;
   }

   logo.png is your logo and can be logo.jpg, mylogo.gif etc, This is then added to the images folder for twentyten.

   Chage the padding for site-title and site title a to get the layout the way you like it.
