How do I add a header and how do I publish my site
-
Hello,
So I designed my whole website, the only thing I need to add is a header image replacing my test tittle. (I still want to be able to click the image and have it take them to the home page)
I’m using the theme “THE PENSCRATCH THEME”
Also I how do I like “Publish” the site?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
-
This site is “published” and available to all with internet access at this link http://thetest52.wordpress.com/
The detailed theme description page with set up instructions is at https://wordpress.com/themes/penscratch/
The support doc for custom header images is here https://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-header-image/

Ok thanks.
I added one but it it shows up under the Contact, About, etc. Not where it says “The DBW” I would like it there. How do I do that?
-
That’s correct. They are displaying exactly where they are supposed to display.
Not where it says “The DBW” I would like it there. How do I do that?
You cant. That is where the site title and only the site title goes.
Below it is where the site tagline and only the site tagline goes. -

You can’t enter menu items into the site title and tagline field. You can move the whole bar if you wish to but that’s not free of charge.

WordPress.COM is a turnkey operation with off the shelf themes. Sophisticated web design is best done on a WordPress.ORG software install and you can get web hosting here http://wordpress.org/hosting/ and set one up if you wish.
WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG account, then click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, https://wordpress.org/support/register.php so you can post to the support forums there.

Ok but on like http://luckypeach.com/ that website, in a picture at the top it says lucky peach in cool font/image.
Can I not do something like that on the top of my site?

That’s not a site hosted by wordpress.COM.
However, you can create such a header image offline in a free image editing program and then upload it into a wordpress.COM blog.

The guide for creating a favicon is found in the support docs at this link https://en.support.wordpress.com/blavatars/
Note that gravatars/blavatars (favicons) do not show up instantly after uploading them. Gravatar images are cached and frequently take several days to display after a change.
