 * The header background image is not responsive.
 * What is the difference between the custom header image and the header background
   image?
    When I add a header image from the appearance/customize option I get 
   a header image that is responsive. When I add a header image from appearance/
   raindrops options/Header background image it is not responsive but I have the
   option to set the height of the image. Adding a custome header from appearance/
   customize or appearance/header results in a header that has too much space above
   it and also causes the main horizontal menu to jump up and down each time as 
   you go from page to page..

 * Hi wpu9000
 * header background image
 * Only provides a function ancillary you can add a logo, to apply the image to 
   the banner section.
    Height setting is not a responsive, as was pointed out, 
   if the width of the browser becomes small, it will produce an unnecessary space.
 * For this part, there are no plans to be responsive to the future.
    The reason,
   users using well this part is because less.
 * It is thought for Responsible of the part of the individual, it is preferable
   to have them customized with your own might be good.
 * You want to hide this part already
 * Thank you.
