Replacing a Page Title with an Image

    I’ve created a few major pages (not posts) on my site that are deserving of titles that are bigger and bolder than what the wimpy default page title offers. I’d like to create PNG files and have them appear instead of the text title.

    I did this for one of my pages:

    http://www.vegan.com/recipes/vegancom-top-10-recipes-of-2008/

    copying this code inyp my Page’s title box:

    <img src=”http://www.vegan.com/images/2008/top10recipes/recipesheadline.png&#8221; alt=”Top 10 Recipes, 2008″ />

    And the result is just perfect, except there’s a cursed “> above my image. I’m guessing my theme (Cleaker) was never created with what I’m trying to do in mind. Unfortunately, the page template file is too complicated for me to understand and create a patch for.

    I thought perhaps if I entered a space before my <img> tag I could get around this problem, but no luck. I could really use some help here!

    I’ve got the same problem of trying to place an image over my title box.
    I’ve currently reduced the opacity of the title box and changed the background image. This gives a less than favourable result as the position of the background changes as a screen to the size of the display screen.

    This is my page http://www.24by36.com/filmroll/

    I’ll appreciate some helping in making the changes that erikmarcus describes. Which is to “erase the contents of the Title box, and embed the graphics code at the top of the Page field instead”.

    Any help will be appreciated.

    What you’re trying to do is completely different than what this post is about. Either that or you’re going about it the wrong way.
    As far as I understand you’re talking about the title of the site i.e the header image. If you read this post carefully you’ll see that erikmarcus is talking about replacing the post title with an image, a unique image for each post which is something completely different and far more complex.

    Maybe you’ll find your answer here: http://wordpress.org/search/change+header+image?forums=1
