Hi Robert !
I agree with you. And it never dawned on me that upgrading from Thesis 1.5 to Thesis 1.6 ( WP paid theme) version would crash the custom settings that was applied previously when opening the blog.
Problem resides in the fact that these customized settings where not done in the "core" files. And if I understand correctly what they demonstrated about the new features of the upgrade, there will now be a way to avoid this situation for future upgrades. Confusing for me..but I guess it make sense for the teckies.
I did check into the DIY forum and posted questions and ask for help.
Read in the forum that by downloading WP Thesis Open Hook plugin , it would be a "breeze" to insert .php, .css, .html etc etc into any hooks of the Thesis theme. So I did that. Got the header up but not displaying perfectly. Took it off.
Afterwards, a reply came to my question suggesting that I do this:
___________
Janice, if you still have any header-related code in Thesis OpenHook, delete it. Then add this to your custom.css:
.custom #header #logo a {
display: block;
height: 180px;
width: 980px;
background:url('images/photo_header_jdcom.jpg') no-repeat;
outline: none;
}
.custom #header #logo, .custom #header #tagline {
text-indent: -9999px;
}

Which i did.
The header is now up but nit displaying right.
Now gotta try to figure out how to make it fit in place neatly.
Pffff....
I think Eren dimensions will make it right. ( 960 x 200 ) Running off to try it out.
That's how we learn....right?
Next time, I will follow Maggie's tip !
Many thanks Robert and also to Eren, Loretta and Maggie.
Talk soon.
