Header Image Position and Size

Is there a way to reposition the header image above the navigation as well as customizing the size? The header image options force a crop on the image and I would like it to be something different.

An example of what it might look like is this: http://physics.osu.edu/

I currently have this: http://gijigogo.com/physics/

Thanks in advance, love the theme!

You can add flex-width for Custom Header image that will allow you to use any image size. Right now it has flex-height properly but you need to add flex-width. Add it right below this line of code.

'flex-width' => true,

Hi,

I made the change, but I don’t see that it has made any difference. I am using child themes. Should that matter? I’ve never had issues with customizing with child themes before.

Thanks!
