Tumblr: how do I add an image as a header?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:make sure that it will fit properly otherwise it will look like crap. go to customize, advanced and look for “add custom css” and add this: #container { background: #fff url(http://farm1.static.flickr.com/154/380173157_dd6a416379_b.jpg) no-repeat; } Replace the url with the proper url and change the fff (white) to whatever color you want. the no-repeat makes it not title across and down. if you want it to title across change it to repeat-x. and repeat-y makes it title down.
