 * Hi,
 * The subject line says, “make image larger” but there’s most likely more involved–
   like, what’s new?!

 * I’d like to make the “welcome note” bigger because there’s a lot of wasted space
   between it and the search box.
 * I want to type more info onto the note.
 * Any ideas on how to do it would be much appreciated.
 * Thanks,
 * Jane

 * In your style.css your using the background picture(welcome.jpg) behind the “
   welcome note”.. just make the height of this bigger then your good to go :).

 * a good photo shop job and one changed number in these styles is all that needs
   adapting:
 *     ```
       #welcome div {
       	width: 190px;
       	height: 127px; /* increase up-to 225px max depending on background image */
       	overflow: hidden;
       	padding: 51px 0 0 24px;
       }
       ```

 * Thank you both!
 * It took me a little while to sort out the graphic because of the angle of the
   paper; meaning that I couldn’t just make it longer.

 * I might add another ‘stain’ but it’s now the size that I wanted.
