 * Hey guys! I am kinda stumped as to how to adjust the header height in the WPSTART
   theme. The theme has a header upload feature on the backend that requires the
   header image to be 940 × 300 pixels. I simply want to upload a 940 x 212 pixel
   image without it being resized.
 * Any ideas???
    thanks! Ryan

 * Looks like you’ll need to create a Child Theme first: [http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
