    Hi,

    I’ve bought the CSS edit option for this blog. I would like to replace the header with a custom image which measures 1284 X 251. I tried to upload the image and I wasn’t able to see the full height, only the height of the original header.

    I would also like to make this header link back to home page (http://chpspo.org) from any page on the blog.

    I’m a newbie, thanks for all help.

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

    Try something like this:

    #header {padding:0;}
#header a {display:block; background-image:url("IMAGE-URL"); height:251px; text-indent:-999em;}

    hmmm.

    I when I tried that I got a failure notice that says:

    Are you sure you want to do this?

    Any thoughts?

    Can you post the exact steps you took to get this notice. When I modify my sites’ CSS from Appearance > Edit CSS and click “Save Stylesheet” it doesn’t ask me for confirmation.

    I went to Appearance > Edit CSS and pasted the code you suggested. Replacing of course “IMAGE-URL” with the appropriate absolute path. I then clicked the “preview” button. I haven’t tried the save stylesheet, since this is an active blog.

    Does the code you suggested need any extra characters above or below it?

    Thnaks again for your help!
