I'd like to add an image header to my page.

Unfortunately, I can't find any documentation to the point of even the preferred size of one. Looking at http://www.dreamwidth.org/customize/options?group=images just asks for an image.

Is there documentation for how this works, what preferred/allowed sizes of headers are, anything of that nature?

I have a couple questions for you:

* What image are you trying to add?
* How do you want it to work out?

I haven't even created an image because I don't know what's possible/allowed by the system.

I'd like it to just replace what's present.

OK, so I threw this together quickly: http://geoffdepew.com/dreamwidth/dwheader.png

800x200, png. Not wedded to it, just something tossed together so I can get an idea of what's possible with a placeholder.

I'd like to replace what's there, without the current text. I don't want to get into Deep Style Magic.

OK redone:

1200x200, png. Also, using the Nightfall theme from the defaults.

The way it is on my main page it's... apparently starting to replicate itself, despite what I did with the CSS that should be working based on some of the things here:

#title span { display: none; }
#title {
width: 1200px;
height: 200px;
background-image: url(http://geoffdepew.com/dreamwidth/dwheader.png);
background-repeat: none;
}
