Try the following (for example):

in the simple-page-master, set the margin-top for the region body to the
height of the one line containing 'Some Header Text' --depending on the
font-size of the text, of course.
Then set the height of the region-before to be greater than the margin-top
just defined (roughly equivalent to the height of the image).

This way your region-before will actually overlap the region-body by
(region-body-margin-top - region-before-height).

(This trick has often been advised as a workaround for adding watermarks, so
I guess the result would be that the header-image actually ends up being
overwritten by the content of the region-body --if any... So if you make
sure the first rows have no content at all in the first columns, this should
actually work.)


Hope this helps!

Greetz,

Andreas
