  Hello all. I’ve just purchased the CSS upgrade and, like so many before me, lost my custom header. I know that I need to put the code in but I can’t find where in the Contempt CSS it needs to go. If anybody can walk me through this, it’d be much appreciated. Thanks!

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

  Can we have a link to your blog and the URL of the image you want to use as the header?

  You should only need CSS if you’re adding a header image with different dimensions. Are you sure you haven’t copied the whole of the existing stylesheet into the CSS edit box because that will break the images used in your theme.

  Thanks for the reply.
  It’s http://justplayed.wordpress.com/
  Image URL is http://justplayed.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/jp-classic-2010-backup.jpg
  There is a chance that I have copied the whole thing. Is there a way to undo that, if I have?
  Thanks again on all points.

  You can return to the original CSS at any time by deleting everything from the CSS edit window, making sure “add to existing…” is selected and click save stylesheet.

  To fix things they way they are now, in your CSS, in #headerimg replace the relative URL in the background image declaration with your URL as below.

  #headerimg {
  background-image: url("http://justplayed.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/jp-classic-2010-backup.jpg");
  }
