Header image won't change with new upload!

I'm so frustrated... I changed my logo and it worked great. Now I want a new logo with some colour (didn't have time last time) and for some reason, every time I upload the new header, it reverts to the old one.

Things I have tried...

  1. Deleting the old file, then uploading the new file
  2. Changing the permissions to 777 on the old file, then uploading the new one with a different name and then re-naming it to the original header name.
  3. Using Filezilla to FTP the image and over-write the old one
  4. Changing the new file to permissions 777 and then re-naming to the header file
  5. Uploading new file same name as header and over-writing it

Nothing seems to work... what am I doing wrong? HELP!!!
I'm sure it's simple and I'm just not getting it...
Thanks in advance :)

Are you sure you're uploading to the correct directory? Have you refreshed the screen after uploading the new image?

I should say that when I view my file in the file manager, it's fine and the correct file (before it kept changing back to the old one).

Re: Header image won't change with new upload!

i'm having the same problem and i'm pulling my hair out. I am using a redirect from my main domain to my second domain with the store and I don't know if that's causing the problem. I've uploaded the new logo.gif and the header_bg.jpg and even left them the same dimensions as the original. I've read all the docs and replaced in the correct folder but I can't get either to display - just keeps showing the zencart logo. I've searched the forum and can't find anything. appreciate any help.

Re: Header image won't change with new upload!

sorry, after 2 days of pulling hair out - it was that i had the redirect pointing to zencart/index.php instead of zencart/ so when i took the index.php out it went away!
