Depends on the theme you are using, but in general you should not modify any theme files – but use a child theme

and post in the sub-forum for your theme.

I believe it is Twentyten and I appreciate your suggestion but would still like to know which file would need to be edited. I assume it would be the same one on the child theme?
IT would be header.php but if you modify theme files, your changes will be lost when WP is updated. Not a good thing.

Thank you very much for the heads up, I wasn’t aware of that.
In regards to the location of the logo, if I want it where I drew the box on the image (I know, I’m bad at drawing.) would I need to modify some css as well?
Probably, but it depends how you add the logo. Generally, if you add HTML to the header.php file, put it in a div with a class or id so you can use that in the CSS – so for example:
<div id="mylogo">
<img src="URL TO THE IMAGE" alt="My Logo alt text" />
</div>
Then the CSS:
#mylogo {
styles go here;
}
You will possibly need to modify the CSS for other existing elements as well to make space for the logo.
If you need more specific help, set up the child theme and then post in the theme’s forum:
http://wordpress.org/support/theme/twentyten
You’ll need to include a link to your site as well.
