I guess you want to keep the header logo the same size?
If so, change the css and php values for the height to 170. See the example above.
You'll need to add the php to your functions file.
You'll then need to change the size of the header widget width.
You might also want to get the header designer to send your the file with a transparent background otherwise its going to be white on grey.
Try Using the header feature under Appearance > Header.
Can you paste a link to your logo? If not, upload it to your media library and grab the url to it and paste it here.
You can change the size of the header area and use a transparent background on your logo.
Here's the header code:
Line 60 style.css file
/***** Header ********************/ #header { width: 960px; height: 120px; }You can also add support for a custom header by adding this to your child themes functions.php file.
/** Add support for custom header */ add_theme_support( 'genesis-custom-header', array( 'width' => 960, 'height' => 120 ) );
Edit the values for the height based on your logo size
Bills plugin: Genesis Title Toggle
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/genesis-title-toggle/Haven't tested this plugin but it should do the job based on the description.
I've written a tutorial on this as there's different ways to hide page titles in WordPress themes.
Where did you get the php for this?
The easiest way is to install a plugin. Rich Text Tags, Categories, and Taxonomies http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/rich-text-tags/
There's other ways to do this as well depending on exactly what you need.
You can register a new widget and hook it into any hook location.
Or you can register a third nav menu and also hook it into any hook location.

Try Genesis > Theme Settings > Breadcrumbs
Breadcrumbs are a great way of letting your visitors find out where they are on your site with just a glance. You can enable/disable them on certain areas of your site.
I tested this using the fonts plugin and HTML and it worked. Its still on my demo. But i also used CSS and it worked on my demo using the code i supplied.
I think CSS is more complicated but far more powerful. Depends on your level of experience,
Best way to learn is to install your theme on a local installation and play around with it using Firebug.
When i tested this, it worked. You have alot of things going on your homepage. You could use a static page as your homepage and do that yes.
Yeah depending on the theme. You could write a custom function to add it automatically if its saved as a featured image but you may as well insert it manually.
You'll need to test it to see where it outputs.
Try here.
genesis_before_content Hook
This hook executes immediately before the content column (outside the #content div).
Try this in the location you want to display the video using Simple Hooks:
You can easily change the conditional tag:
<?php if (is_home() ) { ?> <div><iframe> youtube video embed code</iframe></div> <?php } ?>
You could write the text in your editor and change it there so then you can paste the HTML into the box to output in the footer.
I used the fonts plugin to change the size of the text.
You could also output the same HTML for your text using the Genesis Simple Hooks plugin.
Another way is to use Firebug and change the values in your CSS declaration so your font size is different.

#footer a, #footer a:visited { font-size: 25px; }CSS is far more powerful and flexible so its the better method
You might try changing the Genesis theme settings > Blog Page Template > Number of Posts to Show
and the WordPress Reading settings > Blog pages show at most.
You need to upload it anyway so why not insert it into the post and also save it as a featured image?
I tested the code from this tutorial and it only works in Firefox which is true based on what i did. Worked fine for me.
Mega menu
You can use these files http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/html-css-techniques/how-to-build-a-kick-butt-css3-mega-drop-down-menu/
or install the plugin http://wpmegamenu.com/
Try using custom body class in the layout settings of the page
