Default Kubrick Header-Wordpress Help Needed

Hey guys, I am using the WordPress Default 1.6 by Michael Heilemann theme which has a header named Kubrick.

I was able to switch the Kubrick header for my own design but now the new header I installed is not a clickable link to the home page. Does anyone know what code I need and where I need to place it to make the new header a clickable link? I spent a couple of days trying to get an answer in the Wordpress forum but no one addressed the issue correctly.

Jordy, could you post a link to the blog? I'm assuming it's because the header is a background image but I can't be sure without seeing it.

Yep it's because you have the image set as a background. The site below shows you how to turn a background image into a hyperlink...

The other option is to edit your stylesheet header area and delete the CSS code that is making it a background image and open your header file and just link to it using a regular <img tag. Then of course you can make it a hyperlink like normal HTML.

Does that make sense? There's probably a better way of explaining this.

Default Thanks

Ok, I feel like I'm jumping out of an air plane again. Is HTML (or, "computer language") an elective in college for foriegn langues, lol?

When I get up the courage, I will back up the code for the blog and Jump! In these types of situations it is encouraging to know that I have friends here who can give me a push.

Thanks for the help. I will keep you posted!

I like the type of illistrations that show exactly what my code looks like and exactley what it should look like when I am finished. I will do a comparison and see if the altitude is acceptable to soar.
