# Header Image Issue

 * I’ve read through prior posts here and can’t find an answer for this, though 
   I’ve seen similar problems. I’m hoping someone can help me. The website is [http://www.giftsofasgard.com](http://www.giftsofasgard.com).
 * I’ve got the Escapade theme installed and am using the video header feature, 
   although this happens with the header image, too.
 * No matter what size image I upload, even if it’s the 2400px x 1300px size the
   theme recommends, it blows it up to gigantic proportions. I’ve tried 415px x 
   200px and everything in between, and the image gets blown up to the same enormous
   size every time.
 * I’ve tried adding the custom CSS mentioned in other posts and that only fixed
   the height in terms of now the whole image from top to bottom is visible (but
   not left to right) but the image is still way too big.
 * Any idea how to fix this?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fheader-image-issue-11%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hey [@cemiarot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cemiarot/),
 * Thanks for reaching out!
 * I was able to replicate this issue on my test site, as you can see here: [https://prnt.sc/un2uhi](https://prnt.sc/un2uhi)
 * I have submitted this issue on GitHub so our devs are notified about this, and
   this should be fixed in a future version of Escapade. You can find the submission
   [here](https://github.com/godaddy-wordpress/primer-child-escapade/issues/107).
 * In the meantime, as a workaround, you can add the following code to the “Appearance
   >Customize>Additional CSS” area:
 *     ```
       #wp-custom-header-video{
       	width:100%;
       	height:auto;
       }
       ```
   
 * This solves the issue, as you can see here: [https://prnt.sc/un2vfd](https://prnt.sc/un2vfd)
 * Please let me know if this works for you!
