How to Upload a Custom Header Image

Step 1: Create a custom header image sized at: 740×120 pixels and save the image as a .jpg or .gif file.

Step 2: From the Wordpress dashboard click “Manage > Pages …” and click the title of the page you want to add a custom header image to.

Step 3: Using the Wordpress image uploader, upload the header image you want to use
