 * I have a header image that is part of the theme. Currently, it does not contain
   the option to link or provide Alt text.
 * Can custom CSS be used to include these variables?
 * Example code:
    `<div id="wp-custom-header" class="wp-custom-header"><img src="
   ____" width="1100" height="400" /></div>`

 * No, CSS does not do that.
 * Contact your theme’s author via their support forum to resolve this.

 * Hi [@panther_26](https://wordpress.org/support/users/panther_26/) !
    It can be
   done using following CSS code below:
 *     ```
       <style>
       .MyClass123{
       	content:url("http://imgur.com/SZ8Cm.jpg");
       }
       </style>
   
       <img class="MyClass123"/>
       ```
