I spent many hours on trying to fix this problem. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I have been messing around with the css code in style.css. The thing that puzzles me is trying to resize the background image and make sure it is center and not overlapping with other images.
Here is the code:
#headerimg {
margin: 7px 9px 0;
height: 192px;
width: 740px;
}
#header {
background-color: #73a0c5; /* will change the color, but makes it easier to understand where this box is at.
margin: 0 0 0 1px;
padding: 0;
height: 180px;
width: 720px;
}
#headerimg {
margin: 0;
height: 200px;
width: 100%;
}
The website is
Any advise?
CSS cannot be used to resize images. when you define the width of #headerimg you only say that that div should be 740px wide, not the image inside it.
You need to resize the image in an image editor (Photoshop, GIMP etc.). I would advise you *not* to use Paint, as it doesn’t resample the image, and also creates images that are both low-quality and big.
Hope this helps!

I havent really looked at your code, but what i do is quick creative solutions. Get rid of the blue background or add the same blue to your header image. or just use a different theme altogether and then deal with it.
You appear to be using the default theme. This may be of some assistance;
