browse your ftp;
http://"yoursite".com/skins/miami_blue/img/
folder
upload the new header you would like, then open
http://"yoursite".com/skins/miami_blue/img/style.css
replace the line
background: #6aa1d7 url("img/header.png") no-repeat center top;
with
background: #6aa1d7 url("img/newheader.png") no-repeat center top;

I need to place a transparent gif over the logo on the right hand side of the header (as http://lickorish.info/Language%20services.html) without messing up the css.
Is there a quick fix for this? I have an ominous feeling I need to learn some coding to make this work.

ok i see what you are getting at, then open your style css and insert the newheader.gif without touching the other one and use 'absolute positioning' ..
or; assuming you want to both keep old header image and insert your new transparent gif over the old one, why dont u just edit it through a picture editor place the new one over it and re-upload

Try the Logo Widget

oh right! why did my reply appear after yours? Thanks for your advice tilqicom. Actually I have been doing what you suggest, by modifying the graphics directly on the original header.png file. Will try the CSS you suggest. Thanks again for your help.

This is the code that eventually worked. I had to insert the image between <div class="pageHeader"> and <h1 id="pageTitle"> in the _main.php file. Thanks to personman.
<div class="pageHeader">
<?php
// --------------------------- BLOG LIST INCLUDED HERE -----------------------------
require dirname(__FILE__).'/_bloglist.php';
// ------------------------------- END OF BLOG LIST --------------------------------
?>
<a href="../../../index.html"><img style="border: 0px solid ; position: absolute; width: 269px; height: 88px; top: 70px; left: 595px;"
alt="Home" src="../../../graphics/homelink.gif" /></a>
<h1 id="pageTitle"><a href="<?php $Blog->disp( 'url', 'raw' ) ?>"><?php $Blog->disp( 'name', 'htmlbody' ) ?></a></h1>
I think you will get a quicker result if you can post a link to your blog.
Also, moving this post to Templates, Skins etc
