    the blog in question is http://www.niquehappy.com/blog

    i want to add my logo to the header image but in the theme’s images folder, the header image is only 13 x 117 px so i assume the theme is making it a repeating background image or something like that. so i have no idea how to put text on that image since it’s so small. i don’t want simple text. i’d like to put my logo on it. right now i’m using the “tagline” but it looks really ugly.

    please help. thank you.

    hello.

    you should be able to use larger images. if it does not work or if the image is repeated then that is the fault of the style.css file.

    you will need to look in the css file for something that will look like this:

    background-image: url('images/header.jpg'); repeat;
background-attachment: repeat;

    and then change the word(s) ‘repeat’ into ‘fixed’
    that will stopt the image from being repeated. then make the image you want and give it the same name as the original and upload it and overwrite the original. then see what happens.

    don’t forget to make backups before trying anything at all!

    if it works fine then you will be happy, if it doesn’t then i guess you will be replying again here.

    kind regards and good luck.
