# Sandbox header image width

 * I’m using the Sandbox theme and I’m trying to add a header image, but can’t get
   it to size properly. If I set it as the background image in CSS it appears at
   the correct size automatically, but if I actually add it to header.php (ie so
   that I can have alt text and such things) it won’t display properly regardless
   of what width I apply to it. Can anyone help?

 * I found a trick that works.
 * You put it in the CSS template
