# Noob theme image question

 * I am using the Talian 1.0 theme and have tried to replace the default image in
   the style.css sheet. I have uploaded the image to the correct folder. The only
   modifications I have made to the code have been to correct the image filename
   and to change the dimensions to match the dimensions of the image. Here is the
   code block:
 * #put-image-here {
 *  float: left;
 *  height: 317px;
 *  width: 423px;
 *  background-image: url(images/wallichsmall.jpg);
 *  background-repeat: no-repeat;
 *  border-bottom-width: 3px;
 *  border-bottom-style: solid;
 *  border-bottom-color: #D8D8D8;
 * }
 * Result: the original image disappeared, and the space where the image is supposed
   to be has changed size to the one I specified. However, the image doesn’t show
   up.
 * See: [http://wallich.name/wordpress](http://wallich.name/wordpress)
 * I’m not a total beginner to the code, but mostly a beginner to style sheets, 
   so I’m not finding any correlating code elsewhere in the .css to change.
 * Any assistance or guidance would be GREATLY appreciated.
 * Thank you kindly.

 * Thank you very much for your reply.
    I see none related, but I may not recognize
   it if it is not obvious. Here is the header.php:
