      Your welcome. Glad I could help. I didn’t mean to make it sound like you couldn’t do it. I just thought that maybe I didn’t really explain it the right way. 🙂 Good luck with your website.

        Thanks Wes. You have to be the best theme developer around!

          I’m not sure if this will help you Brian but I just got this to work. I’m sure Wes will have more valid information…or correct anything I said here. But here’s what I did.

          First I went into the functions.php file (This is found in WP in the Appearance – Editor area) I changed this code:

          Add support for custom header
          add_theme_support( ‘genesis-custom-header’, array(
          ‘width’ => 1152,
          ‘height’ => 120

          I simply changed the width from 1152 to 400 (the new width of my logo image)

          After that I uploaded (in the Add new Media area) my new logo image that was 400×120. I copied the link to the image and added the code that Wes put in his message. Now, this did not immediately work for me in so I thought maybe I needed to do some changing in the actual Genesis header area. When I went there I saw that the dimension for uploading the header image was changed to the 400×120. I uploaded my new logo file there and I then had my new logo in my website header.

          I had to do a second thing to make this work. The widget area for the header right area still would not work. I had to go back into the CSS and change the percentage width for the widget. I made mine 40%.

          #header .widget-area {

          overflow: hidden;
          width: 40%;

          All this will vary with whatever sizes you are doing. I hope this wasn’t confusing for you. It did work for me.

          I don’t know why I can’t get the code tags to work in this message. I’m sure I’m doing something simple wrong. But I think you’ll get the point.

            Thanks Wes. At least for now I’m not going to add a slider and I think that the space under the header really doesn’t look too bad. It kind of highlights the navigation (I made the font a little larger in the navigation). But maybe I’ve just looked at it too long and I’m used to it. I think I’ll let it sit for a day or too and then decide. Do you think it looks funny?

            Glad you like what I did with your theme. It really is the best Genesis theme out there. It’s funny the only other theme I was thinking about using was the Optimal theme and I think you made that one too.

            Feel free to add my site to your showcase, if you set one up. That would be great.

              Thanks Wes. I would love for you to take a look at it and let me know if you think there should be any changes or any ideas you might have to make it even better.

              This is the link to the site.

              Oh, and be honest too. I’m always open to criticism! 🙂
