You can, but it looks like this when you insert a header.

To do it just replace
.pageheaderblock {
background : #000000 url(http://oh.goshhh.googlepages.com/blackgrungepattern.png);
padding-top : 0;
margin : 0 auto;
text-align : center;
}

with
.pageheaderblock {
background-image: url("HEADERURL");
background-position: top center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
padding-top: HEIGHTHEREpx; }

(edit HEADERURL and HEIGHTHERE)

I'll need to see the CSS to be able to pinpoint the issue.

Found it. In your CSS find .entryUserinfo-usericon img { and delete the following:
font-weight : normal;
border : 0;
margin-top : -18px;

That should fix it.

Since I'm not very good at explaining classes, I'm going to use a Smooth Sailing guide for you to reference to for a direct meaning of each class (with pictures!). For more information see Breakdown of the Smooth Sailing stylesheet by carriep63/carriep63_stuff. Her guide is very nice and you might find something in it to help you that I don't include here.

.entryLinkbar (this is the 'container'), .entryLinkbar ul (unordered list that contains comment links), & .entryLinkbar li (each item in the unordered list).

Changing color of 'tags' at the bottom of entries:
.entryMetadata (container for mood, music, tags, location), .entryMetadata ul (unordered list that contains the words in meta), .entryMetadata li (each item in the unordered list), .entryMetadata-label (the bold words in meta) : These are the 'currents' css classes. I would assume that the class .entryMetadata-content a would control the tag links because I 'viewed source' and that's the class before the tag links. I could be wrong, so this is just a

Hi there. I'd like to use your layout but would like permission to customize the colors if possible. I have a blue header image. I'd be using it for the community I maintain: atsu_a_go_go

Permission granted! :]

[dollsoflace]

Thank you. I will try my luck with customization and let you know if I can make it work to use it. =] I'll notify you if I'm successful.

Thanks again! It's a lovely and unique layout. I'd probably use if for my personal journal soon too =D

Hi, I'm trying to use this layout but when I tried looking for the "Smooth Sailing" layout the search results yielded 17 different results, all with different colors. How do I know which one to choose?

Thanks.

Any of them will do and the layout will appear the same after installing the custom stylesheet. :]
