How do I Replace the Header with my own JPG File?

@trish_od I have taken a look at your site and it looks as if you have gotten sorted. Now if I can get the rest of my question can be resolved we got it made. I just keep playing around and hopefully things will come right, but I would like the correct way once as my saying is measure twice, cut one.

Read the comments in my post at the link below. I created a video demonstrating how to replace the iNove header and someone asked about making it larger…the comments on that post may help you.

I think this will help. Open up style.css and make the following changes:

Find:

#header {
	background:url(img/header_footer.jpg) 0 0 no-repeat;
	height:174px;
}

and change height to 205px.

Find:

#navigation {
	margin:1px 0;
}

and change “margin:1px 0;” to “margin:83px 0 0 0;”

You might also want to add “background: #fff;” just below “margin:83px 0 0 0;” to make the background white.

Finally, I know that you said to disregard the part about the bottom of the page, but I’ll mention it anyway. The old header_footer.jpg was used in both the header and the footer. Since that file got edited, the footer can’t use it like it had. Not a big deal, but if you want to fix that, just give your new header image a different name and change your stylesheet to look for the new image. Then put the old header_footer.jpg back and allow the footer to use it.

Question,
How Can I keep the same background color in my navigation no matter where i go in my blog? What do i have to change in the header.php code?

Thanks,
