 * I like the old header resolution as I have 25 of them to fit. The Original header
   size is what I use. Reverted to old theme. Can you post change logs on theme 
   changes from now on??

 * Hello Nobita,
    Yes new header size not default 1919 x 400. Understanding you 
   have changed default header image size in latest version of your raindrops theme.
   I Thought that worked better for this theme. Personally i like the original header
   size I tried to step back the style CSS to 1.276 but that hasn’t seemed to repair
   the header on my homepage rather its missing now.
 * Can you create code to allow custom size for header image?

 * Raindrops theme, there was a bug when a large image has been set.
 * functions.php line:570
 *     ```
       if( $page_type_check == 'doc3' ) {
       			$max_width = raindrops_warehouse_clone( 'raindrops_fluid_max_width' );
       			$width = absint( raindrops_detect_header_image_size_clone(  'width' ) );
   
       			if( $width !== $max_width ) {
       				$orrection_amount = $width / $max_width;
   
       				return round( $height * $orrection_amount );
       			}
       			return $height;
   
       		}
       ```
   
 * Change from $width !== $max_width to $width < $max_width
 *     ```
       if( $page_type_check == 'doc3' ) {
       			$max_width = raindrops_warehouse_clone( 'raindrops_fluid_max_width' );
       			$width = absint( raindrops_detect_header_image_size_clone(  'width' ) );
   
       			if( $width < $max_width ) {
       				$orrection_amount = $width / $max_width;
   
       				return round( $height * $orrection_amount );
       			}
       			return $height;
   
       		}
       ```
   
 * I think this change makes correctly work
 * Even after this change, if you need further adjustment, you can use the following
   filter.
 *     ```
       add_filter( 'raindrops_header_image_width', 'revert_raindrops_header_image_width' );
       add_filter( 'raindrops_header_image_height', 'revert_raindrops_header_image_height' );
   
       function revert_raindrops_header_image_width( $return_value ) {
   
       	return 1280;
       }
       function revert_raindrops_header_image_height( $return_value ) {
   
       	return 573;
       }
       ```

 * Nobita,
 * Sorry yes I meant background issue not working. Only on home page. Background
   works fine under posts and pages.
 * Header seems to not fix with functions.php code changes.
 * For filter shall I edit in child theme or under raindrops theme?
 * Thank you
