Is there any way to make the banner slightly wider so I can fit some extra characters into the header?

The banner’s “content” portion has a default `max-width` of `375px` on desktop.
You can enlarge that portion by increasing the `max-width` to a higher value such as `400px`. This can be done by adding the following CSS (note: tweak the `px` number based on your situation)
```css
.below-site-header-outlet.welcome-link-banner-connector .welcome-wrapper .welcome-content {
max-width: 400px;
}
```
