# Theme header broken? New Bug?

 * My header image suddenly stopped working correctly and its height is only about
   1/10 what it should be. This smashes the header and second section together making
   it very hard to read.
 * I am using Responsive Boat on 2 different websites and suddenly the same error
   occurred on both, so I think there was some update that broke everything?
 * My sites:
    Wheelercopywriting.com Lifeforcecampaign.com
 * Thanks very much for your help!…

 * Thanks for your reply. I am in Admin>Appearance>Customize but there is not “Advanced
   Options”
 * Here is what I see:

 * I went to “Background Image” and I fully understand how to place an image here.
   I had an image here for 6 months, then suddenly on both of my sites it stopped
   working.
 * Here’s another example that more clearly shows my problem:

 * Notice how on the left menu I have selected a blue “Email” symbol as my background
   image. Also notice how when it is placed on the screen, it only fills the top
   side bar.
 * The area it is supposed to fill is still gray. This happens no matter the graphic
   I try to place here; the header image does not properly display. This problem
   simultaneously arose on 2 different sites of mine which leads me to believe there
   is a bug somewhere in the theme.
 * Thanks for your help!
