 * Hi,
 * I’ve got a adsense banner on my site, it’s 468 pixels width (standard size) but
   the header is only 460 pixels width. I’ve tried to enlarge it in the editor but
   it doesn’t seem to have any effect in the custom header file.
    Is there a way
   to make the header width 468 pixels?
 * Thanks again!

 * Try this in the custom CSS option:
 *     ```
       .site-header {
           padding: 24px 10px 0 10px;
       }
       ```

 * it’s working now.. i saw indeed it was 470px, so i checked the settings of the
   widget again it was set to a width of 460 pixels, I changed it back to the original
   468px and now it’s showing up fine. Thanks Andrew!
    Another question 🙂 If you
   click on one of my posts, you see a thumbs up and a thumbs down, the only things
   is that they’re a bit cut off on the downside. You know a solutions for this?
   Otherwise I’ll ask it on the maker of the plugin 😉
 * Thanks again.

 * I’d give your thumbnails a height;
 *     ```
       #watch_action span img {
        height: 16px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Otherwise the thumbnails will use;
 *     ```
       height: auto;
       ```
