Hi again,
If I use just the header text for my custom header, it aligns up beautifully with the menus on the right . However when I upload my custom image (which is 960×100), it pushes the image higher than the menus to the right.
Am I doing something wrong here?

Do you have a link?
Keep in mind, the header is 960px, so if the logo and the header widget on the right are too wide to fit within the 960px space then the header right widget will fall under.
Ok, that is where my misunderstanding was. I didn’t realize that the menu encroached on that 960px. I will make my image smaller then.
Thanks a million!
OK, this isn’t working as I would have thought. This is what I’ve done with the results I received:
– Created an image 700px by 100px. WordPress wants to crop it to what appears to be the 960px by 100px aspect, which effectively makes the image bigger but poorer quality. See 700px100px
– Created an image 300px by 100px. Wordpress wants to crop it to what appears to be the 960px by 100px aspect, which effectively makes the image bigger but much poorer quality. See 300px100px
– Created an image 960px by 100px. WordPress accepted it without asking me to crop it. But it sits above my menu. See 960px100px
I just want it to be positioned like the demo header! How can I approach this different to make it work?
Anytime you want to change the header size, you’ll need to look for the background header code in your functions file and add in the exact dimensions of the image you are going to upload (this is the standard way of doing it in Genesis). Then you should be able to upload your image just fine.
Great, I will give that a go.
Thanks a million Wes!
You’re Welcome!
