It wants a 980 x 80. You want another size?

Change the custom-header.php in /library/admin

define('HEADER_IMAGE_WIDTH', 980);
define('HEADER_IMAGE_HEIGHT', 80);

I edited the size in the custom-header.php and the image uploaded fine and to the correct dimensions. Now the only problem is that the entire header section did not adjust to fit. It's still only 80 pixels tall.

Where is the coding to actually change the dimensions of the header itself?

Thanks

It works... thanks. I've got a really good feeling that a whole lot of people are going to be asking about this one. This upgrade to make it "easier" to add header images seems to have made it much more difficult. It only took me a couple minutes on the last release. This one you have all these css files to modify.

But I'm happy because it's working now 

Thanks Extatix

Changed the code; when i go to upload the new header image, 230px, it still asks to crop. How can I get it to just accept the 230 wide header...

Great but I am still being asked to crop the image which looks to be 980x80. Any ideas?

What's the name of the file you replaced?

EDIT: Not to worry. I found the solution through all the various posts.
These are the changes I made, just ensure that whatever image you want to upload as your header is matching the sizes specified in the below changes.

#header    { height:110px; }
.logo                    { height: 110px; }
define('HEADER_IMAGE_WIDTH', 980);
define('HEADER_IMAGE_HEIGHT', 110);
#branding { height: 110px; }
#branding { padding: none; }

Some very basic questions here.

Where do I find custom-header.php?
Where is this /library/admin thingy?
Where would I insert the define('HEADER_IMAGE_WIDTH', 980); define('HEADER_IMAGE_HEIGHT', 80);

I'd really appreciate some help.

Thanks.

How do I change it so that my header is not larger then the custom logo itself? I'd like my custom logo to cover the entire header section.

Thanks.

I'm not sure if this is the same issue, but I see some Arras sites where the header and menu bars don't go all the way across the top and the background image extends up there. How do I do that?
