 * I have a blog that has the same header image on each page. I want to add a new
   page and have a different header image. How do I do this?

 * that depends:
 * if the header image is in an img tag
    – then you could look into using conditional
   tags such as `is_page()` [http://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags](http://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags)
 * if it is a background image in the css
    – then you could work with the `body_class()`(
   if your theme uses it); – or conditional background styles in header.php
 * best approach would be if you could name the theme you are working with (if it
   is a free theme)
    and post a link to your site.

 * I am using the Twenty Ten theme and here is a link to my site:

 * I replaced the default header with my own jpg. Now I want to use a different 
   jpg on a new page.
 * Thanks for your help.

 * twenty ten has build-in that if you set a featured image (in a page) of at least
   the dimensions of the header image, this image should then be shown as header
   image.
    you find the size in functions.php, for instance:
 *     ```
       define( 'HEADER_IMAGE_WIDTH', apply_filters( 'twentyten_header_image_width', 940 ) );
       	define( 'HEADER_IMAGE_HEIGHT', apply_filters( 'twentyten_header_image_height', 198 ) );
       ```

 * did you do this in ‘appearance’ ‘header’ ?
    then this should not interfere.

 * Yes, I did it in the appearance….header area.
    When I go to create a new page
   I am not seeing a way to put a different header on just that page.

 * try to set an featured image (on the right, a bit lower)
    the image needs to 
   have at least the dimensions of the header image (940 * 198 px in standard twenty
   ten)
