  I’ve searched and have not found an exact answer to my question. I’m using theme twenty eleven. Instead of using the text and tagline header, I have that turned off and I have an image header. The image header has some text embedded in the image, but I would like to add some smaller non-image real text above and below the image text so I’ll still have some searchable tagline text in the header, and also so I can modify the tagline easily without having to make a new photoshop image each time. Can someone tell me how to overlay text in the header image area of twenty eleven? I suppose another possibility would be to turn off the header image, turn on the title/tagline and then embed the background image I’m using in that section. Either way, I need some advice about how to accomplish this. Thanks in advance.

  I’m using the 2011 theme on my website: miltontourismassociation.ca, and would love to change the images across the top; How do I do that?
