   Here is the image link: http://allthingsattainable.files.wordpress.com/2012/01/cropped-all-things21.jpg

   Thanks!

   The blog I need help with is allthingsattainable.com.

   I got the domain http://www.allthingsattainable.com/ from here.

   At http://allthingsattainable.com/ the header image area is currently 990 x 150 pixels.

   The image you linked is also 990 x 150 pixels: http://allthingsattainable.files.wordpress.com/2012/01/cropped-all-things21.jpg

   If you just wanted to shorten up the space above the image, you could do this:

   #branding {
     padding-top: 0;
   }

   And if you wanted to make header image smaller, you can adjust the hgroup background image like this:

   #branding hgroup {
     background: url(http://allthingsattainable.files.wordpress.com/2012/01/cropped-all-things21.jpg?w=700) no-repeat center;
   }

   Thanks, designsimply, but it doesn't seem to be working. I'm trying to shrink my header image down to about 50%-75% of where it's at now, but the second piece of code you provided above is not doing the trick. Any other suggestions???

   I checked your Appearance → Custom Design → CSS page and the CSS I mentioned isn't saved there: https://allthingsattainable.wordpress.com/wp-admin/themes.php?page=editcss

   Can you try adding it?

   Note that the query string I added to the end of the image URL in the example above was a random size I picked because you never mentioned what size you wanted before. You can make it even smaller. Just change ?w=700 in the image URL to a smaller number.

   This is working now. You absolutely rule! Thank you so much.
