 * If you want to upload header, you can find it throught the themes folder via 
   FTP.

 * Well I have uploaded the header of required size to a directory of WP. See above
   but either way I’m not capable to get it inside of the template. I tryied change
   templates and insert the header no luck either. I think the trick is in “Permission
   denied in /var/www/vhosts/qrpetbook.com/httpdocs/wp-admin/includes/file.php on
   line 348” meanig permissions. But if I can FTP to any of directories why can’t
   I insert header using the dashboard options?

 * Try changing the permissions on the wp-content directory to 766. If you still
   have problems, try 767, 775 or 777. Once your uploads are working, change the
   permissions on wp-content back to 755 again and check that everything still works
   OK.
