1. I uploaded my .jpg to specs.
I pasted the code from the tutorial. Changed the letter to O. size is correct. all that shows up on my home page is the code.

I see the right code in your CSS box, except the image needs a capital O at the end, not a lowercase O.
#my_banner {
width: 750px;
height: 150px;
margin: 0 auto;
background: url(http://rkgraphics.smugmug.com/photos/384039453_WZVSN-O.jpg) no-repeat;
}
I do not see the <div id="my_banner"></div> code in your header though. Did you take it out or put it somewhere else?

This is what I put in the CSS box.
#my_banner {
width: 750px;
height: 150px;
margin: 0 auto;
background: url(http://rkgraphics.smugmug.com/photos/384039453_WZVSN-o.jpg) no-repeat;
}
I put the header photo in my commercial projects gallery, its the last image.
In photoshop The file is .jpg, rgb, 750x150 pixels @ resolution 1200. Not sure if the 1200 is a problem. Size of file is only 329k. seems nice and small.
I followed all of the instructions. I tried replacing the L (large) with 0 (zero), o (small o), O (Large O).
I even had 2 header pics one in all small with no spaces.
I checked off the the external link to yes, it was.
I pasted the divide thing
Dont know what else to do

You put the:
<div id="my_banner"> </div>
in the wrong customization box. You put it in your "Header Javascript". It needs to be removed from that one and put in the one labeled "Custom Header".

Cool. Glad it worked. It looks nice too.
I was able to figure it out because everything you put in a browser page is available to look at. I looked at all the pieces of your page and found your DIV code in the script section of your page, not the header section.

I am so happy now I can REST.
I want to do so much more. I am addicted, though I do not know HTML. I am more design applications savy. Got any suggestions for me.
Otherwise I was going to try some of the other stuff in the customize help examples stuff.

Thanks for the comp, couldnt have done it with out U U U U U!!!!!!!!
I want to do additional headers for each gallery. A close up of the aperture part. And inset pics into each blade of the aperture depicting the subject manner of the gallery.
I think ill try that next (adding multiple headers)
Thanks Again.
