Ive been going nuts. I may be new to WP, but I am no stranger to the internet, and this is truly a pain, I agree. Oh this is default theme v1.6.
Just for my own sanity:
Here’s the HTML that gets produced.
——8<——-
<link rel=”EditURI” type=”application/rsd+xml” title=”RSD” href=”https://www.peterstickney.com/xmlrpc.php?rsd” />
<style type=’text/css’>
<!–#header { background: url(‘https://www.peterstickney.com/wp-content/themes/default/images/header-img.php?upper=69aee7&lower=4180b6’) no-repeat bottom center; }
#headerimg h1 a, #headerimg h1 a:visited, #headerimg .description { color: black; }
–></style>
</head>
<body>
<div id=”page”>
<div id=”header”>
<div id=”headerimg”>
<h1>All That is Stickney</h1>
<div class=”description”>A Full Fledged Stickney Operation</div>
</div>
</div>
<hr />

And here’s the code from header.php. It looks like wp_head() is reponsible for writing some of the above code, including the background image, as I see it, I could be wrong. I know there’s some CSS that defines the bgimage, but that doesnt actually seem to work if I edit that.
——8<——-
<?php wp_head(); ?>
</head>
<body>
<div id=”page”>
<div id=”header”>
<div id=”headerimg”>
<h1>/”><?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?></h1>
<div class=”description”><?php bloginfo(‘description’); ?></div>
</div>
</div>
<hr />
——8<——-
What is wrong with me?
