    Thanks so much for your swift reply and the subsequent helpful tut links
    that I’m reading through from the featured you included.

    Hi, I would like to do a similar treatment to the Home page as Claire has done, with a full width image (like her water scene), the second ‘floating’ image (like her scales) and the overlaying text.

    At present I am simply using the layout as it appears when installed…text and button to the left and rectangular image to the right.

    Is this simply a matter of replacing the smaller rectangular image on the right with one that spans the desired width?

    I hope I have explained that well enough.

    Many Thanks,
    F Verni

    As with many a problem…no sooner did I send the above help request when a possible solution occurred to me.

    I was using Black Studio tinyMCE to expand the text capabilities of entries into the 1,2 and 3 Widgets.
    In checking, an update for the Black Studio tinyMCE was available, so I installed it.

    Problem resolved!

    Hoping this may help someone else.

    Your most welcome, Matteo.
    Hope this helps you get your header art added to your site.

    Before changing the header image, you should be familiar with basic FTP program usage, image files, and manipulating/creating artwork with a program such as Photoshop.

    You need an FTP program such as FireZilla (free).

    Install the FTP program; and add your site’s login info… URL, username, password.

    Connect to your site with the FTP program.

    You will see a listing of directories (folders) and files.

    Move through your directories to where the header image is stored. That path typically is:
    public_html > wp-content > themes > pianoblack >img >

    In that directory should be the default header artwork.. maybe something like header.jpg

    Download this file, and open with a graphics program such as Photoshop.
    In Photoshop you can determine the exact pixel size; width and height.

    Create your own header to these exact sizes.

    Save your Photoshop (psd) file for later revisions if needed; and do a Save As, to save the file as a jpg (or whatever format the file you downloaded was.

    Be Sure to Name It with the same name as the file you downloaded.

    Upload your new, custom file back into the same directory where you downloaded the original. You may wish to rename the ‘old’ file before uploading the new so that you can revert to the old file if needed.

    That should do it.

    Problem solved:

    I think I may have found a simpler solution, as this same problem happened to me today.

    I have a WP set of files extracted that I keep on my desktop.
    Via FTP, I just uploaded the images from my local wp-admin/images folder to the same folder on my site.
