Changing Header In Theme

[thebigtimer]

I am currently using the mx4_theme by kubrick and would like to change the heading image as well as remove where it automatically displays the name of my page in the header. How can I go about doin this?

 

Here is the code that appears in my header.php file:

#header { background: url(%3C?php\ bloginfo\(\'stylesheet_directory\') no-repeat bottom center; }

 

So I dont see where to change the image....

Check the CSS style sheet for the theme.

K, I got the image I want to use working in the header but when I try to get rid of the name of my page being automatically placed at the top the whole header goes blank and I have to replace it with a new file. It's just one thing after another with me

In the header.php file for that theme remove the following:

 

><h1><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a></h1>
 <div class="description"><?php bloginfo('description'); ?></div>

In the header.php file for that theme remove the following:

 

><h1><a href="<?php echo get_settings('home'); ?>"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a></h1>
 <div class="description"><?php bloginfo('description'); ?></div>

I just tried that and if you'd like, take a look at my page (http://www.thebigtimer.com) you can see what happens, it just goes blank...

Where did you add the image you are using? I don't see it in your CSS or the page itself.

I kept the same name: kubrickheader.jpg and just over rode the file....the image appears when I don't delete the tag info for my blog title....the whole header disappears when I do..

[thebigtimer]

I just winded up deleting my blog name in the control panel....it does the trick....could this be bad in anyway?

[TCH-Bruce]

No that should be fine. I see you got it working.

awww man now my side bar dropped all the way to the bottom.....how did this end up happening?!?? I just noticed it.

Better run it through a validator. There are several errors in your page.

 

Validator for your page

[TCH-Bruce]

1. The DOCTYPE should be the first line of the page.

 

2. The title should be in the

section and not outside of it.

 

3. You have a in the head section yet there is no open

You are really the man Bruce, I owe you big time!
