Depending on your theme, there are several different customization options for your header. For the sake of this tutorial, we will be working with the header in the default UMW blogs theme.

There are several things you can do here.

1. Upload your own header image - Underneath the preview of your header, you'll see an option to choose your own file as the header image. After that, you'll be taken to a page to crop your header image so that it fits the size requirements.

2. Use a default header image - These pictures come with the theme. You simply check the box next to your desired image and hit '"Save Changes"' located at the bottom of the page.

3. Remove header image - This will remove the picture from your header.

4. Restore header image - This will change your header back to it's original settings.
