    I’m using the Executive theme (http://www.kccurbsideglass.com) and would like to set up my  header  to 1140 x 200 instead of  the normal 1140 x 100 that's standard to accommodate a larger Logo.  Do I only have to change the stylesheet  below or do I need to do more?

    Thank you in advance.

    /* Header
    ------------------------------------------------------------ */

    #header {
    margin: 0 auto;
    min-height: 100px;
    width: 100%;
    }

    and here: 

    /* Image Header - Partial Width
    ------------------------------------------------------------ */

    .header-image #title-area,
    .header-image #title,
    .header-image #title a {
    display: block;
    float: left;
    height: 100px;
    overflow: hidden;
    padding: 0;
    text-indent: -9999px;
    width: 25%;
    }

    I'd also change the height in your functions.php

    /** Add support for custom header */
    add_theme_support( 'genesis-custom-header', array(
    	'width' 	=> 1140,
    	'height' 	=> 100
    ) );

    Thank you!  Do I access my "function.php" via the stylesheet? or do I need to go elsewhere?  (sorry if that sounds very ignorant --I'm very new at this).
