 * OK, I think this should be an easy fix.
 * Here is my site. [http://www.pyrodes.com](http://www.pyrodes.com).
 * I am just trying to get the header image/bar to be the exact same with as the
   nav bar and content sections. I change the width in the CSS, but nothing changes
   at all. What am I missing? here is the code:
 * /* Top Bar */
 * #bar {
    background-imag: url(‘[http://www.pyrodes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/header.jpg&#8217](http://www.pyrodes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/header.jpg&#8217););
   background-repeat:no-repeat; padding-top: 3px; padding-bottom: 2px; padding-right:
   1%; padding-left: 1%; } #bar .barhead{ background-image: url(‘[http://www.pyrodes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/header1.jpg&#8217](http://www.pyrodes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/header1.jpg&#8217););
   background-repeat:no-repeat; width: 1000px; margin: auto; position: relative;
 * Thank you!

 * Also, the picture size is well above the desired width, so the picture isn’t 
   just too small. Thanks!

 * this is pure css correction and has primarily nothing to do with wordpress.
 * there are quite a few embedded styles with ‘width:1000px;’ – so go with that 
   width and change the following in style.css (setting the widths to 1000px and
   deleting some padding):
    from:
 *     ```
       #bar .barhead{
               background-image: url('http://www.pyrodes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/header1.jpg');
               background-repeat:no-repeat;
       	width: 1000px;
       	margin: auto;
       	position:relative;
       }
       ```
   
 * to
 *     ```
       #bar .barhead{
               background-image: url('http://www.pyrodes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/header1.jpg');
               background-repeat:no-repeat;
       	width: 1000px;
       	margin: auto;
       	position:relative;
       padding:0 8px;
       }
       ```
   
 * and this from
 *     ```
       #nav {
               width: 966px;
               margin: auto;
               background-color: #c0ca9c;
       	padding-right: 2%;
       	padding-left: 2%;
       }
       ```
   
 * to
 *     ```
       #nav {
               width: 1000px;
               margin: auto;
               background-color: #c0ca9c;
       padding: 0 8px;
       }
       ```
