 * I’m using the Go Theme but I cannot find where to add a background image for 
   the header. It just has an option for picking a color. How do I add a background
   image in the header?
    Thanks

 * Hey [@lucky0311grunt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lucky0311grunt/),
 * Thanks for reaching out!
 * Is [this](https://secureservercdn.net/72.167.241.46/hgm.c71.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/BG-Gold-plate-H-1-scaled.jpg?time=1622245990)
   the image that you’re trying to add [here](https://ibb.co/Nn6T3KR)?

 * Yes, yes, yes. That’s the place I am trying to add that image of GOLD. it will
   look fantastic behind their logo and headings in the header. I’d really like 
   it if the image could propagate around the pages like that yellow color does.
   the GO theme didn’t give me any option for a header image – just a header color–
   and I like how it worked but I really need the GOLD image to do the same. Thank
   you so much for your time? Lucky

 * Hey [@lucky0311grunt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lucky0311grunt/),
 * Thanks for the clarification.
 * There are two solutions:
 * 1) You can add a background for each page as a [featured image](https://ibb.co/YQZrNMT).
   So each page on your site should have the same featured image defined in this
   case.
 * 2) The second solution would be to add the following CSS code to Appearance >
   Customize > Additional CSS:
 *     ```
       #site-header{
       	background: url("https://hgm.c71.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/BG-Gold-plate-H-1-scaled.jpg");
       }
       ```
   
 * Let me know if one of the provided solutions work for you. 🙂
 * Best,

 * Thank you Milos. That worked and it looks great. A bit odd how the header image
   comes from the “featured image” of each page.
 * Is there some way to make my TAGLINE bold and a little bit bigger?
 * Thanks again.
 * Lucky

 * Hi [@lucky0311grunt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lucky0311grunt/),
 * I am happy to hear that the code helped!
 * Here’s another CSS code that will make the desired modifications to the tagline:
 *     ```
       .site-description{
       	font-size:22px !important;
       	font-weight:900;
       }
       ```
   
 * Feel free to adjust the value for `font-size` according to your needs, 22px is
   just an example.
 * Have a nice day ahead! 🙂
