  I uploaded a custom header to my blog in the kubrik theme, but still see blue from the original header around my new header. How do I get rid of that?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Make sure your header is 740 by 192 and it will fit better, hope this helps

  Actually you need to increase the header size to 758px x 200px. You increased the height in your CSS to 200, and the width set in #header is 758px.

  That is my header size and it still is there. Any thing I am missing?

  Your header image is 740 x 192. It needs to be 758 x 200.

  When I opened up the header on my computer and edit it, it says it is 758 x 200. When I upload it, nothing is cropped. What am I missing here?

  Once you have the CSS upgrade, you cannot use the custom header upload feature. You have to upload the image to your media library, get the URL of that image and then place that into the proper location in the CSS otherwise it will always crop it to the original header size. In this case it would be in the background declaration here:

  #headerimg {
  background:transparent url(http://cowfamily.files.wordpress.com/2009/10/cropped-fall-header-right-size-copy2.jpg) no-repeat scroll center top;
  }
