While there are quite a few options, this quick tutorial will cover setting up a single banner with the Atahualpa theme and the various settings within it which relate to displaying banners.

Banners in Atahualpa

Atahualpa has fairly good built in documentation on banners. To read it:

1. Log into your WordPress admin panel.
2. Select "Appearance" → "Atahualpa Theme Options".
3. Under the Atahualpa Theme Options header, select Header Image.
4. You will see the options you have available with information about each of them.

As noted at the top of the Header Image page, you should have your images wide enough to be displayed properly on your site, which depends upon whether you use a fixed width, maximum width, or no maximum width for it.

If you want rotating banners (displayed randomly when pages are served), upload multiple banners to "wp-content/themes/atahualpa/images/header" .

If you want a single banner to always be displayed, upload it to "wp-content/themes/atahualpa/images/header" and make sure that it is the only one there.

To create custom banners, use a program such as gimp ( a free graphics image manipulation program ), photoshop, or paint and save your banners as jpg, png, or gif files.
