    Hi there, are you trying to change the height of the header image strip?

    The class that’s used on the header background image is this one:

    .site-branding

    If you’d like to increase the height, try something like this in your CSS:

    .site-branding {
    height: 460px;
    }

    Let me know how it goes.

    Hi there, site-branding is the name of the HTML element in which your header image is contained.

    You would write the CSS exactly as I showed you above:

    .site-branding {
    height: 460px;
    }

    Paste these lines of code in your custom CSS editor under Customize > CSS. This will make your header image 460px high, but you can adjust that number as you like.

    This is your site-branding HTML element, which you can see if you view your browser source:

    <div class="site-branding">
    <div class="logo">
    <h1 class="site-title"><a href="http://itrekwear.com/" title="=" rel="home">=</a></h1>
    <h2 class="site-description"></h2>
    </div><!-- .logo -->
    </div><!-- .site-branding -->

    Does this answer your question? I’m not 100% sure what you’re asking. :-)

    You might want to try applying the custom CSS I provided earlier only to larger screens. Could you try replacing the earlier code with this and let me know if it helps:

    /* Desktops and laptops
    
    */
    @media only screen
    and (min-width : 1224px) {
    .site-branding {
    height: 740px;
    }
    }

    Hi there, did you still need any help with this? It looks like you left the original code in addition to adding the new bit, so things look a little off – you’ll want to actually replace the old code with the new piece.

    Your CSS customizations currently look like:

    /* Desktops and laptops
    
    */
    @media only screen
    and (min-width : 1424px) {
    .site-branding {
    height: 840px;
    }
    }

    }

    .site-branding {
    height: 740px;
    }

    You want to keep just the first part so the .site-branding class doesn’t become twice as high as it should be:

    /* Desktops and laptops
    
    */
    @media only screen
    and (min-width : 1424px) {
    .site-branding {
    height: 840px;
    }
    }

    }

    Let me know how it goes.
