 * I am trying to install a header/logo image on my blog that is the full width 
   of the page. A graphic design friend advised that the file should be 1950px wide
   as that is the widest a screen would ever display. But when I upload the image
   under Appearances > Header, it is always cropped, even when I select “skip cropping.”
   Also, it is displaying pretty far under the sticky navigation bar, but I want
   it to display directly under the nav bar. Any tips? Website is: [http://idlehandsawake.com/](http://idlehandsawake.com/)

 * the header image is not cropped but scaled; changing that would require some 
   editing of the theme’s header layout.
 * as your currently used theme is not one of the supported themes from [https://wordpress.org/themes/](https://wordpress.org/themes/),
   you might need to contact the theme’s develper directly for help with your question.
