This post (http://community.livejournal.com/s2flexisquares/130476.html) has the code and instructions for adding header images. If you can't figure it out, you can let me know and I'll tinker around with it.

ETA: Actually, that's kind of an old tutorial, sorry. Just copy/paste the code that starts with .headerimage (and keep the beginning and end brackets) into your current code. There's a section at the very bottom of your code that says MISC, and you should see a the .headerimage with the brackets. Copy/paste that code from the link I gave you, adjust the size of the header, and paste in the image url. Also, if you want the header centers on the page, change the $margin left and $margin right to auto. I just tested it on my own journal, which didn't have a header, and it worked for me.

Do you want to make your title centered? All I know about layout codes, I mostly know from tweaking pre-existing layouts through trial and error, so I could totally be wrong, but I think you can adjust the title alignment in the HEADER section where it says .title, change text-align: left; to text-align: center;. If that, um, messes something up, then switch it back.

Oh, you don't have to draw me anything. I mean, that's not why I replied. But I could never say no to more Harry/Sirius! :)

ah, no, i was thinking maybe positioning the banner under the title&subtitle bar, but that's okay. :] it doesn't bother me. centering might help make it look better, though.


i'll keep the harry/sirius in mind! :]

Ah, okay. I don't know how to change the order, or if you can even do that with flexible squares. If I ever stumble across a solution, I'll let you know!
