    this did not work for Chrome or Firefox..?

    try this link in both firefox and chrome

    you will see that in chrome, you click on the robot icon and get sent home, but in firefox you stay on the page. This is because the overlay image is not showing up in firefox…

    I check with one site validate service and there were some errors, but I don’t think any of them directly related to the header…

    Thank you, I tried this and it worked in Chrome, but it is not working in firefox..? Any idea why this might be the case??

    Thanks for your help!

    I figured it out… For anyone who is interested

    my solution was just to create a custom page template and then send it to a new header.php that I created, then I just replaced the img src with the custom header that I wanted

    <?php if ( get_header_image() ) : ?>
		<a href="<?php echo esc_url( home_url( '/' ) ); ?>"><img src="https://www.robotspacebrain.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Header_Keyz-2.png" class="header-image" width="<?php echo get_custom_header()->width; ?>" height="<?php echo get_custom_header()->height; ?>" alt="" /></a>
		<?php endif; ?>

    I changed it to
    #header-keyz {
    background: url(“images/Keyz-1200.jpg”)
    no-repeat bottom center; }

    and it worked…

    Ah, nevermind! I just needed to take out the margin-left and margin-right=0

    Thank you so much!

    I implemented the second method somewhat successfully; however, one last issue I am having is that when the layout is all the way expanded the content is not center in the background..?

    I would like it to expand like this site: thisiscolossal.com

    so that at larger than full width, the site is centered…

    Here is my style.css

    I mean, I don’t know how to edit the header.php to make the header image stretch across the whole screen with no margins…

    <?php
/**
 * The Header template for our theme
 *
 * Displays all of the <head> section and everything up till <div id="main">
 *
 * @package WordPress
 * @subpackage Twenty_Twelve
 * @since Twenty Twelve 1.0

    Yes, I’ve done that. But, I dont know how to edit the header.php to make it do that?

    Just an FYI to anyone… I found the root of the problem. It lied somewhere in CloudFlare. Apparently, the way my site was working was not very compatible with CloudFlare and it was messing everything up. Once I deactivated CloudFlare, all of the problems disappeared.

    I use bluehost by the way, which seems pretty standard as far as hosting goes…

    I have not… But maybe that should be my next step…

    Also, this is the screenshot of the post screen. Nothing is showing up?

    Well, I deactivated all plugins and switched themes, and I am still having the problem. Also, in addition to this problem, I have many “broken links” that aren’t really broken. When I click on them, they load up just fine in a new window.

    Also, all of these issues are very transient. Sometimes they are there, but then I’ll log in a few hours later, and everything looks normal again…

    BUT, it seems to be happening all the time now…

    thanks again for the help
