How to change size and display of header image in pages (twenty-fourteen)

    I have minimalized(deleted much of) the content of my PHP files and now have the look and display I want for my Home Page, but now my other pages that are linked to the Home Page are displaying an over-sized header header image and the image is so big it takes up a whole webpage and I don't seem to know how to create the coding fix for this problem.

    I am only working in wamp localhost so I cannot link a view of my problem. I don't want to download and use a plugin to solve this problem.

    I have many years experience in programming in C-language and VisBasic, but I am new to WAMP and willing to learn what it takes to make my webpage work, but thank you for any advice you might offer!

    How do I modify header.php or functions.php etc files to fix this problem.?

    I want to control whether the header image is displayed and what size it will be in linked pages.

    Below is all the contents on my header.php file.


    <html <?php language_attributes(); ?>>
    <head>
    <meta charset="?php blog_info('charset'); ?>">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">
    <title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></title>
    <?php wp_head(); ?>
    </head>
    </html>

    <body <?php body_class(); ?>>

    <!-- site-header -->
    <header class="site-header">
    <a href="http://localhost/wordpress/?page_id=7" target="'home-page'";>
    <img src="http://localhost/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/Cropped-Front.tekst_-original.gif"; width="100%";";>
    </a>
    </header>

    Hello there,

    In order to choose the size of the header, you have to open the Style.css file and look for the class : site-header

    Choose the Width and height that suit your needs!

    That's all
