Thanks David for the info. I’m still learning the product and development cycles and what-not for the WordPress product.

I suppose I should’nt be such a lazy bugger and should learn how to make / modify my own theme in the meantime. :-)

Not that I know of yet, but any feature development for WordPress.com usually makes it, eventually, to WordPress.org’s version. (for example Widgets)

Give the WordPress.com developers another 2-3 months, and I am sure the feature will be out for all of us as a plugin, though many theme authors will no doubt have to change their themes again…As a theme developer myself, I say “oi!”

I’m glad I found the above comment post.
I’m new to WP and I was going MAD trying to work out why I couldn’t see the ‘amazing’ new buttons.

So is there any equivelant/easy way for novices who choose to host thier own WP blog to achieve these customisable headers ?

Well Matt, I hate to say it, but currently this is only for the WordPress.com hosted blog service, not for the downloadable WordPress.org software.

Sounds like an awesome feature! I was wondering if someone could help a novice like myself. I downloaded and selected Connections as my theme, but I don’t see a new Custome Header Image screen anywhere. How can I use the new feature?
