  I was looking at my media files. I decided to clear that up. So I selected all the unattached images and deleted these. To my surprise, the image I had set for my blog’s header also disappeared and my blog reverted to a standard header.

  So there seems to be bug. ‘Unattached’ does not take into account that the image is used in the main layout of the blog.

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

  Hi there,

  You’re correct, the notations which indicate where a media file is attached is in relation to if/where it is attached to a post or page. There are very few places that an image can be used in conjunction with the theme itself (mostly the header, as you discovered), so as long as you leave that image alone then you should be fine.
