There’s lots of height-definitions for your header from different sources.
Just use
height: 1234px!important;
And it will use the one you set in style.css or is it mystyle.css?
Thank you for responding… does that go into the actual mystyle.css or the header.php or?
I am eventually going to have to find someone to help me clean this up and modify it more….So much to do and I know so little about coding.
Anyhoo, THANK YOU for the advice!
You can change the lines in mystyle.css around line 189
Change this
#header {
display: block;
height: 500px;
width: 974px;
}
to this
#header {
display: block;
height: 500px!important;
width: 974px;
}
where the height of course is whatever value you want.
You are so very kind! I got the header size to change… but I have one other related problem…. whenever i use the Theme’s header tool …it crops it to the old size? how do i get around that?
THANK YOU!
FOUND IT!!! Did some digging and found the ref. in theme functions….THANK YOU. Question… do you know coding well?
THANK YOU!
It seems you do….:)
I have a thousand ?’s …but dont want to take advantage of your kindness… but could I ask you one more…? Then I’ll move on and pester someone else for the next one. π
Thank you… well, I will throw 3 at you…and feel free to answer the one that works best for you… (btw, do you do this professionally or are you just super smart and donate your time to help newbies π )
Anyhoo 1. I was wanting to make a streaming banner that extended across the page below the mastead/nav. a “slider” … similiar but cleaner than the one i have on the upper right side of my page. I know there are alot of slider (i assume thats right) plugins.. but is is terribly difficult to find a way to insert that into the theme? Or is that a lot of coding I need to find someone to do?
or 2. I eventually will add Ad space on the blog (waiting till I get an “established” following… how difficult would it be to add that to this theme?
or 3. Is there an easy way to make the FB section I have on the bottom right seem “cleaner”? That is, is there a better way to organize it
Anyhoo… lots of more questions. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH or your time. It is very much appreciated….
Well… of course I’m super smart π I do this professionally and as I use a lot of free software in my work and also make money with WordPress I want to give something back! That’s why π
on Nr. 3:
I don’t see how your facebook area is messy. Looks very clean and good to me.
on Nr. 2: probably depends on where you want the ads (sidebar or content?) and in what form they come. Another topic I don’t really know much about. I don’t use ads and none of my customers ever has…
Nr. 1 :
I use the promotion slider plugin. There’s also Content Slider and Smooth Slider
All of those are pretty easy to use and shouldn’t be a problem for you to insert into your site.
Cheers!

You are the absolute bomb! THANK YOU..
And you have to be one of the smartest, nicest people that I haven’t yet had the good fortune to meet! π
On #3..thank you.. just checking. #2 It is mainly in anticipation o political ad banners coming into the next election. I dont want to tackify my page…and I like the open space on the sides… so I’m not sure how to do that… just a thought.
#1 how would I put that slider into a space below the masthead/header? Like right under the navigation bar. Since there in no widget space there?
Not sure if you are looking for new clients but soon (next 2 – 3 months) I will need to make serious changes to the layout/ad new features (mostly in positioning, color, fonts, etc.) and will need to find someone to do it. If so, would love to talk. You can (if you want) email me [email protected]
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
