 * Hi there,
 * I would very much like to have a header/banner picture at the top of my Leaf 
   blog. The header picture should not be restricted to 300px, but rather cover 
   the whole width of the blog plus the sidebar.
 * I have uploaded larger pictures via the header page but they are always scaled
   to a width of 300px.
 * Is it possible to change that?
 * Cheers,
 * Robin

 * Oh, sure: [http://robin.breyl.de](http://robin.breyl.de)
 * It’s just a raw prototype. But you can see the header pic (fixed at 300px).
    
   I’d like to have one header of the full width of the content (incl. side bar).

 * Try this in the custom CSS option:
 *     ```
       .header-group.six.columns {
           width: 100%;
       }
       ```
   
 * but remember that the header widget area will be messed up if you ever try and
   use it.

 * Cool – that works!
    Thanks a lot!
 * One last question: there still seems to be some padding around the header picture.
   I don’t mind it too much, but it would be cool if I could get rid of that too.
   Would that be as easy to do?

 * Do you mean top and bottom of the header image? If so you can add this and mess
   with the pixels till you get it how you want.
 *     ```
       #masthead {
           padding-top: 5px;
       }
   
       .site-navigation.main-navigation {
           margin-top: 5px;
       }
       ```

 * Ah, no, actually I meant left and right.
    Still your suggestion worked fine by
   just using padding-left and margin-left.
 * Thank you very much !

   posts to be displayed.
