Help with enlarging header image in Smart Passive Income theme

[sarahkansasParticipant]

Hello- I've consulted various tutorials and am not getting results when editing php. Newbie designer. Currently my image is uploaded at 900 x 280. How do I force the header to allow this bigger logo?

Try this: https://victorfont.com/change-logo-size-in-genesis-themes/

Changing the logo size is a combination of PHP and CSS.

Thanks, but it's something beyond this. I've adjusted those photos and CSS files. If you check the site, the logo still looks tiny compared to the header space. Not sure how to fix...??

Your CSS has the max-width set to 430px and your image is 500px wide:

header-image .title-area {
    margin: 0 auto;
    max-width: 430px;
    padding: 0;
}

Whatever you do, the image is going to abut the header right area. Maybe this will help understand how it works: https://victorfont.com/understanding-genesis-framework-site-header-layout/

Ok,thank you! Now my logo is exactly the size needed, finally. Now I'm trying to reduce the height of the header background area. I've made some changes to padding, but no results. Would you have advice in this?

[Victor FontModerator]

Reduce the padding in .site-header .wrap:

.site-header > .wrap {
    max-width: 1280px;
    padding: 60px 0;
}

Thanks again. I had adjusted that already, then discovered my widget on header-right had 4 lines of space on front of the text. It was pushing the entire header's padding down. Once I fixed that, it is now perfect. Appreciate your help!
