Image Size Question

I am using Blox to add a header image to inner pages. I uploaded an image that’s 1400 x 295 and selected the original image size. When I open the page that uses the image in a window 1400px wide, the image actually displays as 1400 x 367 and it’s cutting off the left portion of the image, why is that? I don’t want my header image to be any taller than 295px, how can I do that? Here’s the page I’m referring to: http://593.eee.myftpupload.com/services-for-doing-business-in-africa/

Thanks for an awesome plugin, Nick!

Hi SocialSpark,

In looking at the page, you have the image set as a background image. This is perfectly fine, but there is some default CSS in the plugin that dictates the height, which is set to 400px. Check out the default styles page for more details.

Anyway, to fix this, you simply need to specify a new height. One the style tab of the block, enter the following (make sure you enter the block’s id):
```
#blox_[enter id] .blox-theme-default .blox-image-wrap.blox-image-background {
    height: 295px;
}
```
That will make the header image only 295px tall. Let me know if this solves the issue. If you have any further questions let me know!

Thanks so much, Nick. Although I couldn’t get that code to work in the actual global block settings (even with !important), when I added it to the Custom CSS in the default plugin settings it worked.

Hi SocialSpark,

This was a case of late night coding on my part. There is an error in the code snippet I provided, an extra space. It should have been:
```
#blox_[enter id].blox-theme-default .blox-image-wrap.blox-image-background {
    height: 295px;
}
```
Sorry for the inconvenience!
