You could make a header image that is the same dimensions as the original template’s header image, or change the header height in the CSS to fit your image. * [@mercime](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mercime/) * (@mercime) * [17 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-issue-4/#post-887621) * Your customized theme is constructed wrong from bottom up. To start 3 lines of doctype: * ``` ``` * and another doctype in body. * You need to check Codex [http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development](http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development) [http://codex.wordpress.org/Stepping_Into_Templates](http://codex.wordpress.org/Stepping_Into_Templates) [http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags) Viewing 2 replies - 1 through 2 (of 2 total) The topic ‘Theme Issue’ is closed to new replies. * 2 replies * 3 participants * Last reply from: [@mercime](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mercime/) * Last activity: [17 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-issue-4/#post-887621) * Status: not resolved ## Topics ### Topics with no replies ### Non-support topics ### Resolved topics ### Unresolved topics ### All topics
