 * Hi,
 * I’m using the theme Minimalizine and i’m not able to import my logo with a tranparent
   background.
 * I’ve tried to modify the custom-header.css to put
 * `background: transparent;`
 * but my logo still have a white background.

 * your theme or site is not calling a _custom-header.css_ stylesheet.
 * please try working with a browser inspection tool to identify which style you
   need to edit to make the header image background transparent, or post in your
   theme’s forum at [https://wordpress.org/support/theme/minimalizine#postform](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/minimalizine#postform)

 * Hi Andrew,
 * I’ve applied the code provided in the
 * /* Header section of style.css but still the same result.

 * the white background of the header image is set here:
 *     ```
       /* Media */
       img.size-full,
       img.size-large,
       .header-image img,
       img.wp-post-image,
       .entry-content img,
       .entry-summary img,
       .comment-content img,
       .widget img {
       	background: #fff;
       	border: 1px solid #eee;
       	max-width: 97.6%; /* Fluid images for posts, comments, and widgets */
       	padding: 5px;
       }
       ```
   
 * overwirite it by adding **exactly **the /css suggested by [@andrew](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andrew/).

 * Awesome, that did the trick. I’ve also add
 * width:540px;
    height: auto;
 * to resize the logo size.
 * Thanks for your help.
