Make sure that you ALSO upload the header.png image to the images folder in your theme directory 🙂 * Thread Starter [Empirevaleting1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/empirevaleting1/) * (@empirevaleting1) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-header-4/#post-2878553) * Just uploaded the header.png to images, how do i put the image of the outline of the car on top of the header? and thanks for that, i did know they had to be in the image file. do i put it in the css and the header, as im puting it in css but not showing. * [haxxxton](https://wordpress.org/support/users/haxxxton/) * (@haxxxton) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-header-4/#post-2878555) * there looks like there are a few css issues that i think might need changing: * line 483: #access{ * delete the line that says `margin-top:-180px;` * your header should appear correctly then * Thread Starter [Empirevaleting1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/empirevaleting1/) * (@empirevaleting1) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-header-4/#post-2878559) * Just tryed that but nothing happened, someone give me this code to put in the css so it will float over my the company name but not working. * #header { background: url(“images/outline header.png”) no-repeat top left; height: 60px; } * [haxxxton](https://wordpress.org/support/users/haxxxton/) * (@haxxxton) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-header-4/#post-2878560) * i can still see that you have the code that you need to delete present.. * please look for line 483 that looks like * ``` #access { background-image: url("images/navbg.jpg"); display: block; height: 43px; margin-left: 32px; margin-top: -180px; position: relative; width: 980px; z-index: 3; } ``` * you need to REMOVE the section that says `margin-top: -180px;` * Thread Starter [Empirevaleting1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/empirevaleting1/) * (@empirevaleting1) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-header-4/#post-2878562) * I did but it didnt work so i put back in, but it is out now and still it hasnt changed anything. do i need to put a float on the image that i want on top of the company name image? * [haxxxton](https://wordpress.org/support/users/haxxxton/) * (@haxxxton) * [13 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-header-4/#post-2878563) * I would also suggest the following: * on line 256 that looks like: * ``` #header { background-image: url("images/header.png"); background-repeat: no-repeat; height: 335px; margin-left: 30px; margin-top: 80px; position: relative; width: 100%; z-index: 0; } ``` * replacing `margin-top: 80px;` with `padding-bottom: 80px;` * it also looks as if there is no content populating your

tag.. you may need to look in your header.php for the section that says: * `

` * and replace it with * `
