Header image does not display

    Hello,
    I have set up the “Pool” theme on the following: https://blog.figure3a.com/wordpress/ and wanted to customize the header image. In the stylesheet, the header code is:

    #header {
    background: #8EBAFD url(images/logo.gif) no-repeat;
    height: 150px;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    }

    I created a new header image with the same dimensions as the original, gave it the same name (logo.gif), and uploaded it to wp-content/themes/pool/images to replace the old logo.gif.

    Unfortunately the old image shows up, even after refreshing the page. Is there anyone who may have an idea what is wrong?

    Thanks very much in advance.

    Jackie

  • I’m seeing a white header with black text that says test header

    I also see a white header reading TrueSpies test header.

    Perhaps the old image was stuck in a cache – in your browser or with your ISP. Try holding control (IE) or shift (Firefox) when you refresh to force a new image to be retrieved.

    If all else fails you could always rename the header logo2.gif and use this code:

    #header {
    background: #8EBAFD url(images/logo2.gif) no-repeat;
    height: 150px;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    }

    There is also no width attribute listed (width: Xpx;).

    “background: #8EBAFD url(images/logo.gif) no-repeat;” …
    “uploaded it to wp-content/themes/pool/images to replace the old logo.gif”

    That’s your problem.

    1) The URL is incorrect. “wp-content/themes/pool/images/logo.gif doesn’t exist.

    see for yourself

    I can’t find the image on your server anywhere (you have too many themes uploaded for me to pick through). But that’s your issue – the file either isn’t there, or if it is, you haven’t uploaded it to the right spot.

    Yep, it’s missing all right :p When you upload the new one make sure you use the correct extension also, and add a blank index.htm file to your wordpress/wp-content/themes/pool/images/ folder.
