Tara, 

You need to specify the height and width of the #masthead, and possibly put
display: block. 

The div is not quite smart enough to know the size of the image unless you
specify it. 

Hope this helps. 

Thank you!

Subject: [css-d] placing a header image thru CSS?

 Hello again, I got some help from this list once before, in order to
position a header image through CSS (rather than have it on every single
page... this image is updated once a month!).

Here's the code that someone was so kind to give to me to try:

#masthead {
background-image:url(../images/craftwebheader_bytara.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center;
}

So I did this, but here's my unfortunate result (it's obviously not live, so
you'll have to look at my screenshot of it):

As you can see, the problem is that the masthead does not have enough
"width" to accomodate the graphic. What CSS would I use to correct this?

Thank you.
