  I need help as well!

  I set up with a simple account for blog purposes only. I already have a website which I have paid for. In this link: http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/custom-header-image/ it lists themes that can have a customized header (I want to insert my own image), however, I have not found that the listed options on the website are accurate. When I go to the ‘demo’ I either do not see a header option, OR the header options are only options provided by WordPress. There is not option to upload the header image or background.

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

  You cannot upload a header to a preview. You can only do it once you’ve activated the theme.

  Actually I have activated the Twenty Eleven theme, however, I went to ‘Header’ on the right sidebar and there is no option to upload my header image. Let me know if I missing something…

  Go to Appearance->custom header on the dashboard instead.
