Title: K2 header Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # K2 header * [knsheps](https://wordpress.org/support/users/knsheps/) * (@knsheps) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/k2-header/) * I’m currently using the K2 template, but I’d like to modify the header and the background in order to have a customized picture. However, since there is no header picture to just replace, or background pattern, how can I do this?

Changing the background as I have done gives a red bg. * [hostage](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hostage/) * (@hostage) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/k2-header/#post-370438) * Hi Podz * Where would you insert this code ? in the header.php within K2 theme ? at the top ? * 🙂 * [ladydelaluna](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ladydelaluna/) * (@ladydelaluna) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/k2-header/#post-370440) * that goes into the CSS file, and i’m not sure – but will either create or replace a current header style format * [hostage](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hostage/) * (@hostage) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/k2-header/#post-370442) * hi 🙂 ladydelaluna * what would the CSS file be called ? header.css ? * i´m very new forgive me * [ladydelaluna](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ladydelaluna/) * (@ladydelaluna) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/k2-header/#post-370443) * in your admin section – go to “presentation” and then to “theme editor” * look for either “style.css” or “stylesheet” on the right hand side and when you click it, it will bring the stylesheet into the editor for you. * (we were ALL new once!) * [hostage](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hostage/) * (@hostage) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/k2-header/#post-370444) * Alright 🙂 i´m getting there * so let´s say i wanted to use this plugin : [http://www.lynk.de/wordpress/flashfader/](http://www.lynk.de/wordpress/flashfader/) * where would i but the code for that in the style.css 🙂 * i´m sorry if i´m going ahead of myself. * p.s i got the plugin working fine but i could not make it cover the whole “blue” box header. * thanks * [Samuel B](https://wordpress.org/support/users/samboll/) * (@samboll) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/k2-header/#post-370446) * You might benefit from this plugin, also.

And any suggestions on creating a wallpapered background? * [ladydelaluna](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ladydelaluna/) * (@ladydelaluna) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/k2-header/#post-370462) * knsheps – try doing some searching in google for CSS and HTML tutorials… that will help you much better and faster than these forums… * [Samuel B](https://wordpress.org/support/users/samboll/) * (@samboll) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/k2-header/#post-370464) * I run K2 also. Make it really easy on yourself and go get this plugin: [http://ramlev.dk/wp-plugins/](http://ramlev.dk/wp-plugins/) * Easy to insert header pic any time you want to. * Thread Starter [knsheps](https://wordpress.org/support/users/knsheps/) * (@knsheps) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/k2-header/#post-370467) * Thanks for the plugin, that was awesome. And beleive it or not, I’ve read through 2 CSS tutorials. They’re good for simpler templates I’ve found.
