   I would like to change the name of Header.jpg to something more search engine friendly.

   I know that the Header.jpg file is located in the theme's image directory but I can't for the life of me find where it's called from. My programming knowledge is limited to say the least but I'm looked at every php page in the themes folder and out of it and I can not find reference to Header.jpg anywhere. Can someone help?

   This would be a big SEO help if people could change it because if we can change images to reference the keyword (search) phrase we are optimizing for, we would be just one step closer.

   Any help out there??

   Well, I just answered my own question 9sorta). I was searching the forum for something else and found a hint that drove me to my answer.

   In case anyone else is having this problem, go to the stylesheet and find

   div.Header-jpeg
   {
   position: absolute;
   z-index:-1;
   top: 0;
   left: 0;
   width: 890px;
   height: 250px;
   background-image: url('images/Header.jpg');
   background-repeat: no-repeat;
   background-position: center center;

   (Keep reading though)

   It's in the 3d line up; however, I'm not sure it helped what I wanted. Does the image we use for a header show up to the search engines as something.jpg for the page it's on? I viewed source on my homepage after I changed things and I don't see the newimage.jpg there. Maybe I'm attempting to do something that can't be done.

   Now I'm more confused than before. Can someone explain this to me?

   The site is http://www.fladocks.com. I called the header image docks_in_florida.jpg
