 * Just wondering if it is possible to add a header and how would I go about doing
   that?
 * Thanks!

 * that one is fairly easy
    you will need an .jpg image for the header that is 760
   x 200 name the image `kubrickheader.jpg` upload it to /wp-content/themes/minimalism/
   images go to site and refresh page that should do it you have a header

 * Thanks! I’ll give it a try.
 * What about a header for the elegant-grunge theme? Do you know that height and
   width in pixels for it to fill the whole area?

 * I think I found the info I needed for the elegant-grunge theme.
 * I can’t get the header to work for the minimalism theme. The jpg image is in 
   the right file. It is actually showing up behind the origianl header words in
   the “edit header” function but it won’t load on the page.

 * You know, I’m having some trouble with this one. I made the kubrickheader.jpg
   and put it into the appropriate folder – it shows up when I go to edit the header
   in the Design settings, but won’t show on the actual site. Any idea as to what
   gives?

 * Thanks in advance!

 * This seems like an awkward fix, but have you tried editing your CSS?
 *     ```
       #header {
       background: url(images/kubrickheader.jpg) no-repeat;
       }
       ```
   
 * That seems like the most obvious fix to me.

 * Now, in minimalism 1.0.3 there is a standard header, very easy to change: just
   edit the minimalismheader.jpg in /wp-content/themes/minimalism/images and that’s
   it. Have fun with minimalism.

 * I’m sorry, but I can’t seem to get mine working. I’ve uploaded it to the correct
   folder, I’ve tried the suggestions here, and even in the “Header Image and Color”
   editor the image doesn’t even show…
 * I can only get the “text” version of the header to show, but I just want the 
   jpeg. My site is here:

 * I appreciate any help!

 * Never mind…I just had to delete the default and then upload it again…for some
   reason that worked!

 * I have been trying to get my header to install as well (elegant grunge theme).
   I finally got my header on there, but my page shows it extremely huge, you can
   see only a small portion of it. When I created it I sized it as 760×200. Also,
   I have tried to go into header.php and like when I go into any .php file I cannot
   save any changes I make. It acts like it is saving to my hard drive, and I cannot
   change the path in which to save it. Any suggestions? I have already made sure
   my permissions were 755, and I have also changed them to 777 just to see, but
   no change at all. Thanks.
