  I’m brand new to WordPress, just left Blogger. Installed a custom header, purchased the CSS upgrade and header has vanished. I’ve tried switching templates and header is visible when looking at the preview. As soon as template is activated, header disappears.

  I’m currently using the Misty Look template and viewing the blog in Firefox.

  Has anyone else had this problem?

  When you make even one CSS change, you then need to insert the actual url to the header image on the stylesheet. If you change it later, upload the new image via the editor and get the url from there, then manually put it in your stylesheet.

  Having the same problem buy using the Contempt theme.
  I inserted the actual url in the stylesheet but still the header image gets covered about 25%

  I used half a dozen different sizes in hopes it would solve the problem, but no matter how big or small the header, a part of the header gets covered.

  I also have on the stylesheet the 28 pixel background padding.

  Below is the code on my stylesheet.

  Anyone know what I’m doing wrong?

  My blog url is
  http://lotgk.wordpress.com

  #headerimg {
  height:126px;
  width:760px;
  background-image:url(‘http://lotgk.files.wordpress.com/2008/02/headerwp.jpg’);
  margin:0;
