 * Hi.
 * I’m trying to edit the width of the header in the theme.
    And what i mean by 
   that is, when i try to change the width of my header, the whole design changes(
   background, border ect). I just want my menu and logo to have the same width 
   as my content area below, which is 1170px.
 * With a little help from Photoshop, I have tried to illustrate how I want my header
   to be.

 * Hope someone can help.
    Thanks in advance.
