The three Journal styles I mention there have either a way to directly link to your header from pb (Green of Envy), or I have the CSS codes for putting up headers. If you choose one of those styles. I can tell you how to upload headers.

btw What Journal style do you have on right now?

thanks Jas,

I have Green of Envy on now. My main problem is I seem to have a total mindblock when it comes to LJ, finding it really difficult to use!!

Any help you could offer would be so appreciated! I'm such a newbie :P

My other style was 'Draft Brown' by Tiffany Chow.

For Green of Envy, just go to Customize Journal Style.

On the left choose 'Style'. At the bottom there should be a Header option (under Images). Just transfer the link, write down the height and click Save Changes.

After that you can edit the colors to match you header etc...

Hmm..... never used Draft Brown before...

And don't worry you'll get used to LJ after a while. :p

Having problems making this work! I've done everything you said but still can't see the header! I must be missing something really dumb!

That's weird. What link did you copy? The direct one or the IMG one you use on GW?

Yeah, when I do a right click on the space where the header is supposed to be and select "Show background image" it shows me your header. So it means it's there somewhere...

I can't tell you what the problem is like this. If you want PM me your log in info (here or on GW) and I'll try to fix it.

All done. :) I had to change your style, but c'est la vie. :p

Now you can just edit your colors to match you header. :)

You're welcome. :)

I have no idea what it was. It could have been just an everyday LJ glitch (those have been know to happen...often :p). That's why I tried a different style. That one worked.

Oh and don't worry about me knowing your password. I already deleted the PM and already forgot it. :p
