 * I’m about to start crying.
 * I fell in love with this theme and things have been going great until I went 
   to try and add a header image resize to the function.php and then everything 
   fell apart.
 * I tried copy and pasting the original function.php from the spun.zip file but
   nothing.
 * Im so sad. 🙁 I don’t know what i did wrong and now that website is ruined. I’m
   hoping I can find a quick fix soon as i need to have this website done! 🙁

 * The header will crop to 150px x 150px unless you add a filter to make it larger.
   Here’s a step-by-step:
 * 1) Create [a child theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes) — Jan’s instructions
   above are perfect! Don’t forget to activate it under _Appearance -> Themes_ (
   but don’t delete the parent theme)
    2) Add a functions.php file to your child
   theme — it should have only one line of code to start:
 * `<?php`
 * 3) [Add the code posted in this thread](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/make-header-larger?replies=3#post-3764275)
   to your child theme’s functions.php after that first line, changing the values
   to the new dimensions you need
 * That, coupled with the CSS Andrew suggested above, will allow you to resize the
   header image to fit your design.

 * You’ll find instructions for creating a child theme in the links above, and then
   you’ll make a new functions.php file to go in your child theme.
 * Jetpack only allows you to edit the theme’s appearance — it doesn’t allow you
   to change the theme’s functionality, like the custom header size.

 * See this link [http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
   and see Jan’s post above. You’ll need to have FTP access to your site – ask your
   hosting company about the access info for FTP.
