Making the header height larger

I'm trying to add a bit of my own spin to the website. I want to make the header a little bit bigger. I went into CSS.main to attempt to change the height of the header. I don't want to use pixels, because then it might not render correctly on different screens. How do I make the header height larger and have it still be responsive on different size screens?

Hey Maddie,

One approach to this that I think would work for you is using percentage like "height:15%". This will scale with the screen size.
