 * Hi,
 * I loved using this theme for a different site and now have an opportunity to 
   have some fun with it on another. My intention is to create a child theme where
   the wave graphic is replaced with something more specific to this client. The
   site is [here](http://www.watkinscounseling.com), but at this point I don’t think
   there is anything to see if you go there.
 * I have located the #banner-curve (and #no-banner-curve) styles and the wave images
   in the theme. The thing I am not yet clear about is how the images are called,
   and also how this will affect how I name the file. If you could give me some 
   guidance on which files I will need besides the style.css it would be much appreciated.
 * Thank you!

 * If your image is not showing except the ALT tag, it means the path to your image
   is either incorrect, or your image is not where it should be. You might want 
   to double check to ensure the image is where it should be. Also, make sure the
   image that is supposed to be loaded has the correct extension:
 * .png
    .jpg
 * …etc.

 * I figured it out. I have been leaving the extra code for the color options in
   and the single vs. double quotes, plus the file extension were all potential 
   sources of error. I stripped out the extras so I could use the complete file 
   name as-is and that fixed it. I’m not sure what I was doing which made the larger
   banner work but not the smaller one, but that’s not important.
 * Thanks again!
