Hi everyone,
I tried searching for the answer, but can't find it. I'm using wordpress, and i've uploaded a logo to see what would happen. Well the logo keeps getting cut off my the home bar i think its called (the bar like on bhw would be right under the logo and says home, forum, blogs, what's new, etc.) Anyone know how i can fix it?

I use GIMP (free image program). Resize image by percentage in GIMP, then reupload it until it fits. Perhaps not an elegant solution, but it works

What CandyLand suggested is perfect. Also, if you have PhotoShop, you can just click "resize image" based on the proportional pixels to use.

you can go to the header file and resize the image by inserting height and width. So that you can fix without resizing with external tool.

Or you can search for the logo height and width in the CSS section, and resize there

Photoshop is the best tool... GIMP can also work...but it's harder to learn. Using photoshop, cropping, and resizing is very easy. To make your images smaller and is ideal for web use, I strongly suggest the online free tool: Webresizer. Just Google it coz I am not allowed to post a link here. I have used this a lot.

You can't really enlarge an image beyond it's pixels-per-inch without making it look pixelated. You can make it 900x900 in photoshop and it will look like crap it it was a 100x100 image to start and wasn't some crazy high DPI (which it probably was not I'm sure).

<img src="image URL" alt="image text" width="304" height="228">

Click to expand...

This should do the trick. Just change the width an height to what you want (its pixels).
