 * Yes you can but the exact method depends upon the theme you are using.

 * You should be upgrading to WP 3.0.4 for security reasons but it won’t change 
   the fact that the exact method of changing your site title to an image depends
   upon the theme you are using.

 * Gernally speaking, under appearance, select edit. On the right side bar, select
   index.php
 * Look for the line of code that is in between <h1> SOme COde </h1>
 * Delete the code in between the h1’s and insert the image using HTML using
    `<
   img src ="URLtoImageYouUploaded" alt ="Site title text">`

 * There are literally thousands of WordPress themes – which means that many people
   won’t be familiar with your particular theme. So a link to your site where people
   can see the theme might result in more responses.

 * Upload an image called logo.jog that is no larger 190px hight and 830px wide 
   to your theme’s images folder. Then edit style.css and change:
 *     ```
       #header {
           height: 190px;
           position: relative;
       }
       ```
   
 * to:
 *     ```
       #header {
           height: 190px;
           position: relative;
           background:url;(images/logo.jpg) no-repeat left top;
       }
       ```

   application your host provides.

 * If so then, it **_is_** between a <h1> and </h1>! Not sure if you added that 
   after I told your or not though. The easiest way for you to upload an image is
   to just login to your wordpress site. Then on the left sidebar select media /
   add media. Upload the photo there, and once it’s done uploading it will show 
   you the full URL of the image.
