# Header Logo Image Size

 * I like this theme in principle, but it’s been difficult for me to do certain 
   things. The main thing is, I’ve got a header image that I’d like to use on the
   upper left side. I uploaded it under Theme Options but the theme is showing it
   much smaller than it should be. I only see an option to change the height but
   I need the theme to present the logo/header at its full size.
 * Would someone please tell me where to do to do that? Step by step would help.
   Thanks.

 * Disable it under Theme Options and goto your edit and add the below line to your
   style.css
 *     ```
       #header { background:url(https://site.com/headerfilename.jpg); position: relative; padding-bottom: 60px; }
       ```

 * Thank you Sharadjustin.
 * I disabled it under Theme Options, and then added the code you provided to style.
   css using my image file name. But all that happened was that no image showed 
   up at all. Just the words to the title of my site.

 * Try adding this to your custom css:
 *     ```
       .site-title a img {
         max-height: 100%;
       }
       ```

 * Thank you, but no change. Any idea why the image is being shrunk to begin with?

 * It’s probably being limited by the size set in Theme Options > Styling > Header
   Logo Image Max Height. You could try setting that to 125 which is the height 
   of your logo image. Also, wherever you’re adding your custom css isn’t making
   it to the live website. Either your cache or your CDN, or maybe both, aren’t 
   getting updated.

 * Super, simply changing the image max height with the slider did it. I thought
   that since it didn’t mention width that it wouldn’t work. Thank you for your 
   help!
 * But now, the header image doesn’t line up with the column below it. It’s like
   the header is indented. Could you help with that? See at [http://www.marriageradio.com/blog](http://www.marriageradio.com/blog)

 * Maybe you haven’t changed the live site yet but the logo there still has a height
   of 60px. To pull it left you can use this css:
 *     ```
       #header .pad {
         padding-left: 0;
       }
       ```

 * Hi Sharadjustin, I would, but my issue isn’t resolved yet.
 * BDBROWN, thanks, but adding that line to my CSS didn’t move the topic. It’s like
   CSS is being ignored.
 * Please take a look at [http://www.marriageradio.com/blog](http://www.marriageradio.com/blog).
   Do you have any other ideas?
 * Also, does the banner appear full size to you now? Thanks so much.

 * Yes, the logo is displayed at 800×125. But I don’t see the adjusting css. Maybe
   need to refresh the cache?

 * Hi, I tried refreshing the browser cache and just refreshed my WordPress cache.
   Still not showing aligned correctly left. Odd.

 * Here’s the screenshot of where I added it in CSS. Am I doing something wrong?

 * That should work but negative margins can have unintended consequences in responsive
   mode. Check the css I posted 6 posts above. If you want to also remove the spacing
   above and below the logo, use this:
 *     ```
       #header .pad {
         padding: 0;
       }
       ```
   
 * Also, it looks like you’re adding your css to the main theme style.css file. 
   Those changes will be lost if you upgrade the theme. I’d encourage you to either
   use a child theme or a plugin like [Simple Custom CSS](https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css/).
