for the sidebar h4, you probably copied and pasted what I put here. Try deleting the  " " (quotes) from “Mountains of Christmas” and type them in again.

for your widget titles on the side bar you have this:
.sidebar h4 {
color: #fff;
font-family: "Mountains of Christmas", cursive;
font-size: 36px;
margin: 0 0 10px;
text-shadow: -1px -1px #7c2c2c;
}
try this:
.sidebar h4 {
color: #fff;
font-family: "Mountains of Christmas", cursive !important;
font-size: 36px;
margin: 0 0 10px;
text-shadow: -1px -1px #7c2c2c;
}

At this point I think I solved the problem.  For those that struggled like me here's what I did:

In style.css I replaced BOTH #title-area & #header respectively.  Now I at first tried to comment out the original code but that DID NOT WORK.  It wasn't until I fully replaced one with the other that things seemed to work.  I also had to upload an image "logo.png" to the images folder manually.  This can be done either by FTP or a file manager tool.  Oh and the "logo.png" had dimensions of 320px X 120px.  I did NOT solve this on my own.   Its the compilation of the help of several people.  So I don't want credit.  I just want to offer help to those that are / were stuck like me!!

#title-area {
background: url(images/logo.png) no-repeat;
float: left;
overflow: hidden;
width: 400px;
}
#header {
background: #090909 url(images/header.png) center repeat-y;
background-position: center !important;
background-repeat: repeat-y !important;
margin: 0 auto;
min-height: 120px;
overflow: hidden;
width: 100%;
}

Quick side note / question:  Are there any plugins that are known to conflict with Studio Press / Genesis / Outreach theme?  One that might conflict with the redirect functionality?  Thinking that might be causing the site to revert to an older version and only offer the link to the mobile version when you scroll all the way to the bottom of the page...Thanks!!!

Sozo / Kent-

 

Sozo I tried your solution but I could not make it work.  Kent I looked at your site so clearly you did something to get the result you wanted.  But I looked using Firebug and could not see any additions made in accordance with what Sozo had suggested, so did you try something different.  Actually Kent what you did is EXACTLY what I am trying to do 🙂  Would you be so kind as to elaborate as to what you did.  I also noticed that when I did have my custom header installed when I manipulated the home page via resizing the browser it actually shrank the logo vs your site which seems to keep the contents of the header the same and eventually centers it, I'm assuming as desired.

Thanks so much for yalls response in advance!!
