Change header image?

  • Hi, i’m making a website called ChickFires and I was wondering how i can edit the header.php file to chnage the header image to one that I have already made. Where would I insert the direct url for the image etc? Any help would be appreciated ??

    Here is my header.php code:

    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "https://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="https://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="<?php bloginfo('html_type'); ?>; charset=<?php bloginfo('charset'); ?>" />
<title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?><?php wp_title(); ?></title>
<meta name="generator" content="WordPress <?php bloginfo('version'); ?>" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?>" type="text/css" media="screen" />
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS 2.0" href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>" />
<link rel="alternate" type="text/xml" title="RSS .92" href="<?php bloginfo('rss_url'); ?>" />
<link rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml" title="Atom 0.3" href="<?php bloginfo('atom_url'); ?>" />
<link rel="pingback" href="<?php bloginfo('pingback_url'); ?>" />
<?php wp_get_archives('type=monthly&format=link'); ?>
<?php //comments_popup_script(); // off by default ?>
<?php if (is_single() and ('open' == $post-> comment_status) or ('comment' == $post-> comment_type) ) { ?>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/js/prototype.js.php"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/js/effects.js.php"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/js/ajax_comments.js"></script> <?php } ?>
<?php wp_head(); ?>
</head>
<body>
<!-- warpper start -->
<div id="wrapper">
<!-- header start -->
	<div id="header">
		<h1><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a></h1>
		<h2><?php bloginfo('description'); ?></h2>
		<div id="navigation"><div><div>
			<ul>
				<li><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>">Home</a></li>

				<li><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/?page_id=145">FAQ</a></li>
			</ul>
		</div></div></div>
		<div id="rss"><a href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>"><img src="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/images/spacer.gif" width="55" height="36" alt="RSS" title="RSS" /></a></div>

  • If you want to use one that is the same dimensions as the default image, then just replace your default header image with your custom image…it’s here:

    ok. finally!! Figaro you seem to be the guru on this stuff, you actually help out!!

    I have a question, I have a theme that I actually want to replace the words that say

    “SWEAR TO FLY” with a custom image.

    how do i?? the theme is called “Fullscreen”.

    There are quite a few people here who help out, but we need a link to the site to help ?? I’m not familiar with that theme, so post a link and someone can tell you how to replace the header.

    ok…gimme like 5 min.

    https://graphpaperpress.com/2009/06/10/fullscreen-wordpress-theme/

    thats the theme ive been working with so far, my main focuses are how to change the elements of it.

    I need to know how to change the font to a few I have downloaded, and how to change the font on the middle black bar on the homepage that says currently “swear to fly” which is my sites name.

    I also have a problem with a splash page, I know how to make one, i have a few ready, and i know where to insert it in my ftp client, but I don’t know how to make it to where you can click the image or it refreshes and lets you in. and everytime i load it up as an html, it just shows me a question mark.

    Please help, i would be grateful forever.

    I need to know how to change the font to a few I have downloaded,

    I don’t understand…you don’t download/install font like you do on your computer for a wordprocessor application…you change the font in the theme stylesheet.

    and how to change the font on the middle black bar on the homepage that says currently “swear to fly” which is my sites name.

    I don’t see “swear to fly” on this site?

    If you want to change the background image of header, then it’s here:

    https://graphpaperpress.com/wp-content/themes/gpp_v6/images/bg.jpg

    The image is actually the entire background, but the very top part makes the header…just edit that image or create another one and replace it.
