Trying to change the header

I have a header that I want to change. I tried going into my logowrap but it wouldnt let me do anything.
Is there a way I can put the html file somewhere and have it changed?

I also cant send my new header to my hosting site because its a png file. Winzip will not accept it so I have to figure out how to put this on my site by going past the process of loading it from my computer to my hosting.

I found the logowrap but I dont know the codes to stick an html in

No link to srr what you have???
Zencart is a php application so there are no html page files to adhust

Most apply a header background with css

When I go into my files includes/templates/darkness/css/stylesheet I click on 'view' then 'view as text' then 'edit' once I find

logowrapper this is what I put in but obviously its not working or I am not putting the code in right

#logoWrapper{
background-image: (http://apieceofthereef.com/test.html%29;
background-repeat: repeat-x;
background-color: #383E44;
height:144px;
}

Re: Trying to change the header

If there was a way to override the php file then I could load it normally but I dont know how to do that so that is where I am stuck and trying to put it in manually

Re: Trying to change the header

I'm not sure why Winzip is an issue. You would upload that image with an FTP program like Filezilla. Then edit the styleshheet as the tutorial directs.

#logoWrapper{
background-image:url(../images/1264913477.png);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
background-color: #383E44;
height:144px;
}

assuming you uploaded the image to the /images folder. In your case you'd want to change repeat-x to no-repeat and change the height to 110px.

Re: Trying to change the header

does 'banner2.php' go in the place of the red numbers?

#logoWrapper{
background-image:url(../images/1264913477.png);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
background-color: #383E44;
height:144px;

Ok I tried that and it did not work

#logoWrapper{
background-image:url(../images/banner2.png);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
background-color: #383E44;
height:144px;
}

Re: Trying to change the header

Ok it worked https://www.apieceofthereef.com but now I am assuming I need to change the size

The file was not sent as a zip so I had to zip it send it and then uncompress it

Re: Trying to change the header

Ok the re-sizing it was located in the stylesheet css and I just lengthened the numbers for main wrapper and logo wraper to what I needed. I did them at 5 points at a time so I wouldnt go over and WALA
