    Hi, I am new to CSS and need to change my header image size to 900X300. I made an attempt at it but the image is still getting cut off. Can anyone assist me with this? I would greatly appreciate it!

    Yes, thank you. It helped a bit but my image is still cut off. Not sure where to go from here?

    When I edit the original image it doesn't allow me to set at 900x300. It automatically adjusts to 900X567.

    Why don't you use an offline image editing program to create an image of the exact size that you require? http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2009/11/28/ten-free-online-image-compression-and-optimzation-programs/

    Unfortunately, none of these image editing programs worked. They said the pixel request was too large. Also, I couldn't figure out how to edit a custom header in CSS.

    Not sure how the commands should be typed in for Fresh & Clean theme.
    Still stuck??

    I answered this for the mommiesarejustbiglittlegirls.com blog (which is using the Mystiqute theme) at http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/help-with-header?replies=6#post-1018253

    I'm closing this thread. If you still need help, please start a new thread and link to the blog you are working on and your header image link that you've uploaded to your media library.

    Thank you for your guidance. But I decided to go with a different theme. I do appreciate your time looking into this matter.
