you need to delete your custom header image on the custom header options page.

you may still need to add an !important:

div#masthead {
background: transparent url(http://getarealitycheck.files.wordpress.com/2007/03/realitycheckbannersmall13.jpg) no-repeat scroll 0% !important;
}

The URL should be:

http://getarealitycheck.files.wordpress.com/2007/03/realitycheckbannersmall13.jpg

I wouldn't be polling from photobucket and you already have it in your space here.

You have to have the URL of the image. If you want that particular banner, it would be something like this:

#masthead {
position:relative;
top:0;
background:url('http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v211/TheoUKHC/realitycheckbannersmall1.jpg');
width:700px;
height:225px;
margin:0;
}

Not sure if that is the header part, but I think so. You have to call image complete URL's with custom CSS because it is no longer relative to the original theme directory, but using your CSS sheet.
