  I’ve used the same custom header since I started my blog in July 2010. Last night, a different picture was there. I had to re-upload my image. What happened?

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

  Please provide a link to the blog in question starting with http://

  Did you switch themes? Did you purchase the upgrade and change the CSS?

  The link is: http://gayleen5.wordpress.com

  I haven’t switched themes. I purchased add’l space months ago, but no other upgrade. I haven’t made any changes to the appearance. My custom pic has always been my header until a few days ago when a WordPress pic with a tropical theme was there. I had to re-upload my photo. Since then, all’s well, but would like to know why the header changed without my knowledge or input.

  Thanks :-)

  This is the header image I am seeing using Firefox 8. http://gayleen5.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/cropped-france-may-2009-032.jpg
  Is that the correct header image or not?

  Timethief,
  That’s the correct image….it’s the one I uploaded 17 months ago, but a few days ago when I was previewing a post, it had changed to one of WordPress’ photos. Strange.

  I don’t know how to explain the change you saw. I’m happy that the header image displaying bow is the correct one. Best wishes with your blog.
