On a fresh installation the header section is created using from the Template

So if you want to edit it go to the template that you are using (in the admin login go to the menu Layout --> Templates ) and then click on the template name

look for

Code: Select all

  <!-- Start Header, with logo image that links to the default start page -->
The code that is directly beneath there is what creates the header. 

On a fresh install it is all done using CSS, but me being less familiar with CSS and more familiar with html ripped that out and put in something different.  You could create a global content block (like the footer and put that in there...  which is probably something I should do!

Good luck

in the CSS stylesheet color,, it will say something like this,,

/*colors*/
body{background-color: #d7e3f5}
div#header{background-color: #84B7FF}
div#hbox{background: #A9C2E5 url(uploads/images/logo.gif) no-repeat right;color: #000dff}
div#hbox h1 a{color: #C1E6FF}
div#hbox h1 a:hover{color: #C1E6FF}

background: #A9C2E5    fill the box with this color
url(uploads/images/logo.gif)      what to put in the box,,
no-repeat  only once,,
right  make it float to the right if there is room like with a small logo ie. the default palm tree, it's small.
color: #000dff   any text in the box will be this color, except of course the h1 a thats the beauty(sp?) of CSS you can target most anything that has a

this is the same for any box you want to put an img. in,, you might have to tell the box to be a certain size like,, width: 350px; height: 30px or whatever size the img. is if nothing else in the box will make it gain size, ie text.
