Title: Help needed adding image in header Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # Help needed adding image in header * Resolved [TechTalk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/techtalk/) * (@techtalk) * [15 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/help-needed-adding-image-in-header/) * I’ve managed to alter my site in several ways but am now stuck on adding an image to the header. My base theme is copyblogger and here is a list of changes that I’ve done: * Moved the navbar into the header and adjusted font / padding / margins. Changed the header text to black for posts. Removed the black and red footer blocks. * Here is what my code looks like right now: style.css * ``` #logo { width: 750px; height; 100px; margin: 0 auto; padding: 0em 0em 1em 0em; } #logo a { font: normal 5.0em "American Typewriter", "Trebuchet MS", Verdana, sans-serif; color: #fff; } ``` * header.php _[Code moderated as per the [Forum Rules](http://codex.wordpress.org/Forum_Welcome). Please use the [pastebin](http://wordpress.pastebin.com)]_ * My image is located inside the theme folder at “/images/logo.png” * I’ve been trying to find the solution through trial and error but I have yet to succeed. * Any help would be greatly appreciated.
