Adding a header

I tried to design a layout it was easy to add a header image to! The layout is 700px wide by default, so I recommend you make your header image 700px wide as well. Here is a preview of the layout with a header.

To add the header, find these lines of code (hint: they're at the very top for easy editing) and replace YOUR URL HERE and YOUR HEIGHT HERE with the url of the image you want to use!

#header {
    background-color: transparent;
    margin: 1em auto 2em;
    background-image:url(YOUR URL HERE);
    height: YOUR HEIGHT HERE;
    width: 700px;
    }

Colors used (for easy replacing)

#f45962 · links, journal subtitle

#e15169 · link hover

#9ecf95 · date/time, reply link hover

#7cb173 · reply link

#ca0f0e · module titles, navigation hover
