I'm totally impressed with myself for loading an image in the header! icon_smile.gif

But... I want my new header to be much bigger.

I found an image for a header but only a small part of the image shows up because the space for the blog title is so small.

Does that make sense?

This is a new blog I just started so you can see what I mean...

Can I just make that header space bigger to accomodate the image OR should I totally replace the header? The problem is though, the image doesn't have any text.

Hmmm any ideas?

Thanks as ALWAYS!

Jennifer

Hello truthdancer icon_biggrin.gif

Welcome to BloggerTalk.net icon_exclaim.gif

I took a look at your blog and the header looks good, it blends in nicely, but I do see what you mean about the description tag kind of overlaying the header image...

This part to be exact:
Quote:

You can add a < BR > tag in the middle to drop part of it down one line!

Or you can adjust the following in your CSS near the top, just under the Header part...

Code:

#header-wrapper {
width:660px;
height: 220px;
margin:0 auto 10px;
border:1px solid #c94093;
}
#header {
width: 660px;
height: 220px;
margin: 0px;
border: 1px solid #c94093;
text-align: right;
color:#9d1961;
}


Now see the width tag - its currently set at 660px's - simply adjust this to your desired size!

Hope this helps..

Hi Shawn,

Thanks for this info!

When I posted this question last night, I still had the image in the little tiny box provided by the minima template but by Midnight I had figured out how to make it bigger (very proud of myself)! But of course as you noticed the title went into the image and there was that big space. So, my goal for today was to do exactly what you taught me... get the description to look better!

Thank you so much! I'll go do my homework!

Jennifer
