 * I have went through everything and can’t figure out how to change the header 
   picture (the grayed out head). How do I update the picture?

 * Hi @eyrobinson86 –
 * Thanks for getting in touch. Could you let me know what site you are working 
   on by posting the URL? This way I can take a look and compare what your site 
   looks like to the demo for Writr theme. Thanks 🙂

 * If you’d rather not post your site URL just let me know what part of the theme
   you are working on based on the Writr demo site:

 * Like I said, I’m trying to change the picture on the template and there is no
   way for me to do it. The white man’s picture on the template.

 * Got it 🙂
 * That’s circular image of the man is the header image. In order to update that
   you’ll need to go to the Customizer and update the header image there.
 * The direct URL is going to be [https://YOUR-SITE-URL/wp-admin/customize.php](https://YOUR-SITE-URL/wp-admin/customize.php)
 * Give that a try and let me know how it goes.
