 * Hi,
 * in the preview of the theme I think it is here in your style.css:
 *     ```
       div.Header-jpeg {
       background-image:url("images/Header.jpg");
       background-position:center center;
       background-repeat:no-repeat;
       height:225px;
       left:0;
       position:absolute;
       top:0;
       width:792px;
       z-index:-1;
       }
       ```
   
 * May I add that I do not not like headers that take up half my screen ..

 * Hi;
 * I’ve modified that part of the style.css file, but doesn’t work, the body of 
   the page don’t move down when the header becomes higher. I’ve just changed the
   height value 225px for 500px. Do i gotta do something else?
 * So sorry for my english, thanks for your help and opinion. I hope you can help
   me.
 * Regards.

 * Soory,
 * this one:
 *     ```
       div.Header {
       height:60px;
       margin-bottom:0;
       margin-left:auto;
       margin-right:auto;
       margin-top:0;
       position:relative;
       width:898px;
       z-index:0;
       }
       ```
   
 * Note: raising the height leaves an empty space until you upload a higher header
   imgage.
 * and the brown color is your present header.jpg 898×60 px
    Replacing it with your
   higher own made header.jpg will push the content down.
