    Hi ,

    1. I would like to know how do I move my image in the header down to create some white space.

    2. The image does not resize when the browser zooms in or zooms out. How do I fix this issue.

    Regards,

    Faisal

    Hi,

    1. Open your style.css file in your child theme folder and look for the following on line 1895:

    #header {
    max-width: 1360px;
    margin: 0 auto;
    width: 85%;
    height: 353px;
    background: url(http://www.telecomlighthouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Lighthouse-1360x353.jpg) no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
    }
    

    and either change the margin value or add some padding.

    2. You can try using this plugin to make your header responsive - Genesis Responsive Header

    Hope this Helps

    Thanks Stewart,

    I was not able to make the "Genesis Responsive Header" work. May be its the beta version, thats why. I installed simpled Header instead. I am ok with this new plug in, although it is still not responsive.

    I am still struggling with white space above my header. Any suggestion ?

    Regards,

    Faisal

    For #header, change margin:0 auto; to margin: Xpx auto 0;.

    Edit X to however many pixels of white space you want at the top. The 0 is added so the bottom margin stays the same. If you want more space below the header, you can edit it as well.

    All the best.

    thanks Geoffrey,

    I did not find the margin to modify. However I added, "margin: 20px auto 0" under header .wrap and it created white space.

    One issue related when I try to minimize my window horizentally, this white space becomes larger and it looks awkward. Is there a way to keep the white space at 20px even when I make the window smaller ?

    thanks,

    Faisal
