   I am a fan of Kubrick (ans Contempt) and have waited for a while for this improvement. Good job. Thanks in advance.

   Cool new development!
7. Christian Burns Sep 25th at 4:13 am

   Very cool! Now if we could only have an easy way of seeing what themes had custom headers without actually loading them up 🙂

    I once found out a tool called Kubrickr which let you choose a Flickr image and it cropped the image as a header for Kubrick. Now finally Kubrick has native Custom Header support from WordPress! Kudos

    It’s lovely, but the ‘Hide text’ option doesn’t seem to work, which makes me sad…

    Thanks!

    The original header which I have saved as completely white is available from the FAQ:

    it’S amazing:)
18. Daijinryuu Sep 25th at 8:40 am

    I still don’t like Kubrick because of the lack of pages mentioned horizontally on the page, and I hate Contempt because of how the widget design looks. And because I hate having my blog header and tagline centre-aligned.
19. mactiste Sep 25th at 8:44 am

    at last! we love you, guys! thanks a lot from Spain! =)
20. podz Sep 25th at 9:02 am

    @ Christianburns
    See which themes have custom headers available
21. paoloechiaro Sep 25th at 9:47 am

    eh, già!
22. baerchen Sep 25th at 10:05 am

    woooooohoooooo….finally….
    Thank you very much indeed…
    and a big greeting from germany 😉
23. Vish Sep 25th at 11:39 am

    @ Daijinryuu – I was thinking about that this evening. The centre isn’t the most important part of the page…

    I like the FAQ stuff- I have to admit, it’s changed a bit since the last time I checked it out.

    As for improving customisation of themes, I am always supportive of that! Nice work, WordPress. 🙂

    yay! thanks again, you guys.
31. Thomas Sep 25th at 4:25 pm

    Rulez!
32. ulisse Sep 25th at 5:22 pm

    hmmm… it seems that something strange happens with the cropping of the image, sort of upper border duplicating in the final resulting image…

    Already sent feedback about that 😉
33. Hans Sep 25th at 5:26 pm

    Thanks you guys..!! Great work…

    I believe this is really a perfect example of customer loyalty..!!
    Keep it up…

    Hooray! At last a 500 pixel wide (for images) clean template. The only problem is I can’t get the colored text to be colored. It shows up as colored on the screen to change it but it’s white when viewed online >

    Way to go, guys!

    Now let’s fix that portuguese calendar! 😛

    (In case you don’t know yet, it expands beyond the righside limit of the page.)

    @MadMark – for a guy who dosent have any words . . . . u seem to have a lot of words.

    Thanks again WordPress. Now how about that theme preview without changing the theme that we’ve been asking for ???
39. engtech Sep 25th at 6:58 pm

40. MadMark Sep 25th at 7:07 pm

    Thank you again for this new cool feature!

    I’ve just realize my new custom header image (it’s a temporary one), i f you like it i can customize it for your own blog.

    Special Thank to podz for posting the exact size of this image header!

    😀 😉
41. ansel Sep 25th at 7:50 pm

    Thank you so much wordpress.com. I had just submitted a feature request for this, and walla there it is.

    Actually, Podz’ custom header isn’t right – it has extra gray space. I edited it so the top of the banner comes out correctly – here’s the image.

    Also, it seems like custom header in Kubrick doesn’t link to the blog’s main page like it otherwise would. A fix for that would be nice.

    I realized this fix for this. Just change it in the regular color chooser. Worked for me.

    it seems that something strange happens with the cropping of the image, sort of upper border duplicating in the final resulting image

    I also noticed this. Funny bug. Matt I, and I’m sure everyone else, will appreciate it when you announce the fix or solution to this bug.

    For now, I have a rectangular (not rounded) custom header image on my blog. Check it out.

47. blarz Sep 26th at 7:39 am

    Awesome!! I just recently switched themes so I could use a custom header and I love how it looks now! The more themes that support this, the better!!
48. MadMark Sep 26th at 9:17 am

    I’ve made a standard custom header image for kubrick and it’s right such as Ansel’s kubrickblank.jpg.

    If you want you can download it and personalize with photoshop or Gimp, image is here:

    http://madmark.altervista.org/id_header.zip

    Enter this address in the Browser directly and don’t use the link because Altervista do not support hotlinks from other sites!
49. blaze Sep 26th at 11:22 am

    Ah you had to give em kubrick didnt you 😉 Ah well. Fanboys will be fanboys. I prefer my new theme at the moment & prefer to change every now and again too… like moods.

    I never understood the fascination with kubrick anyway….
50. storymode Sep 26th at 11:30 am

    If Kubrick had this customization before, I would have taken for it in a heartbeat. I’m really glad it has it now, regardless of my staying with “Neat!”

    Thanks WP Staff! ^^
51. بهمن Sep 26th at 5:37 pm

    Its a loving future 🙂
    But pictures that we upload are not fit in the header and also are not rounded as the same as original header image!
    Could you please correct this problem.

    Thanks 😉
52. Layman Sep 27th at 12:18 am

    Custom header image with all corners rounded

    – Using your favorite graphics program, set the black (#000) on this mask to ‘transparent’ and overlay it onto your source image.

    – Position the mask so that the image you want on your blog shows in the “window.”

    – Save the precise 760*200 mask with the ‘framed’ image as graphics file (jpg works, I didn’t try gif or png).

    – Upload and do NOT crop (the default selection image area is the whole thing as uploaded and that’s what you want, so just hit the crop image button without moving any of the dotted lines.)

    See example here.
53. Draconas Sep 27th at 1:10 am

    hooray, finally! thank you!
54. NedOne Sep 27th at 9:51 am

    Bye!

    Great, I had been waiting for this for so long! But now I found that I really like using Connections so I’ll have to try out Kubrick again and try to decide between them!
62. mactiste Oct 6th at 8:19 pm

    Layman, you are my new hero! =)
63. rmtaylor Oct 9th at 11:54 pm

    Yes!! Now this is what we need!! Now all I need to do is design a wicked header graphic!!!
64. bejoysvijayan Feb 5th at 7:54 am

    Do anyone know how to change the header image alt tag?
    is that possible to edit these header image alt tags on wordpress themes.?
    now it shows “Image header” by default.
    Thanks !
