 * No, I have tried various images – including ones which I know worked previously,
   so it’s definately not the fault of one image. Also, as mentioned in the top 
   post, it’s not just the header, but also when inserting images into posts (which
   I cannot do anymore).
 * With JPEGs (i.e. the format which my intended header is in), the error message
   does not come up but instead proceeds as if the image is there and just shows
   a blank white image.
 * I just wondered if that error message that comes for non JPEGs (e.g. TIFF images)
   may be a clue as to the basis of the error.
 * Having looked at the databases, I have definately got two (I think they are pretty
   much the same and is a result of the error-ridden reinstallation process when
   switching domains). One is called ‘mydb1’ and the other ‘mydatabase1’ – the latter
   is being used.
 * Again, thanks for your help, where should I go from here do you think?

 * I have changed it over to the Twenty Eleven theme for the moment. I have uploaded
   a custom header. On the crop header screen no image – or box – appears, so I 
   select ‘crop and publish’ and it goes back to the header screen as if it’s uploaded…
   but nothing there.
 * When I try uploading one of my old headers it doesn’t do this but instead get
   the following error message:
 * “Warning: imagecreatefromstring() [function.imagecreatefromstring]: Data is not
   in a recognized format in /home/yorkonth/public_html/wp/wp-includes/media.php
   on line 254
 * Image could not be processed. Please go back and try again.”
 * Does that suggest anything?
 * How do I find out which database is being used? (Sorry, I’m a novice, need my
   hand holding).
 * Thanks for your support again.

 * Unsuccessful unfortunately but thanks for the suggestions.
 * I noticed that I in fact have 2 SQL databases (the programmers for the web hosting
   company must have used this as a workaround when we were having difficulty switching
   over). Could this be something to do with it? Any suggestions?
 * Thanks again.

 * Apologies, thought I had included it but apparently not.
 * Thanks for any help.
