    Hello, I have two questions 🙂 I have the focus theme and like the font of post titles, and want to use that font in the menu - is there an easy way to do this? I also want to make the header height larger, around 225 pixels. Is there an easy way to do this as well? Thank you for your help!

    To change the header size, look for this in your functions.php file:

    /** Add support for custom header */
    add_theme_support( 'genesis-custom-header', array( 'width' => 1060, 'height' => 120 ) );
    

    Adjust for the size header you would like to upload.

    To change the font size of post titles, look for this in your stylesheet:

    h2,
    h2 a,
    h2 a:visited {
    	font-size: 42px;
    }
    

    Adjust accordingly.

    Thank you!  I changed the size in the functions.php file but now the menu is overlapping the header, do I need to change the menu code as well?

    Sorry - wasn't thinking about the menu area in the header right.

    Make adjustments here:

    #header .widget-area {
    	float: right;
    	padding: 25px 20px 0 0;
    	width: 530px;
    }

    Oops, I should have been more specific - I'm talking about the secondary navigation (I use it as my main menu below the logo). And before, I didn't want to change the font size in that secondary navigation, I'd like to change the actual font to be Yanone+Kaffeesatz to match the headers used throughout. Sorry for not being more specific!

    Ok, I figured out the font but for the life of me cannot figure out how to move the secondary navigation to below my header so it doesn't cut it off. I set the header to be 225 pixels high.
