 * Im trying to increase the size of the logo on my site: bristolbaywaters.org when
   I do it in the css it makes it blurry, so im told I need to add a function in
   the theme to prevent it from re-sizing my logo. Would anyone know which file 
   im supposed to edit and the code im supposed to add? Thank You!

 * You can get a larger logo in Resonar with a couple of steps:
 * First, create a child theme so your tweaks won’t be overwritten every time you
   update the theme to the latest version. Here are some guides:

 * If your child theme doesn’t already have a functions.php file, create one using
   a plain-text editor and add an opening PHP tag at the top:
 * `<?php`
 * Add this function to your child theme, below the opening PHP tag:
 *     ```
       function resonar_child_logo() {
       	add_image_size( 'resonar-logo', '600', '300' );
       }
       add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'resonar_child_logo', 11 );
       ```
   
 * You can adjust the dimensions as you like for the maximum width and height values
   of the logo.
 * Add this to your child theme’s style.css file, adjusting 600 as needed so it 
   matches your desired maximum width:
 *     ```
       .site-logo-link {
         max-width: 600px;
       }
       ```
   
 * This works perfectly on my test site – here’s a screenshot:

 * Thank you so much! I was in over my head there. Really appreciate it! Looks great,
   gotta tinker with it for the adaptive but that works perfect! Also thanks for
   the heads up on the child theme.
