Still asking me to crop despite having the correct image size in the first place.

It is solid and I use nothing else for working with wordpress either hosted here or self-hosted sites, so the issue is not with Safari.

This is an issue with wordpress and with the twenty eleven theme.

I'd say 30% of issues in the forum can be traced to people with browser issues.

Incidentally I use Safari, but I'm sure that is irrelevant. I did however upload a new header just yesterday, so it must be a selective/random bug.

So both oddities seem to be bugs on wordpress core software side? Hmm, rather flaky. Will this be only fixed when 3.4 is released? When is that due? Very annoying, currently - and simply broken.

I change my header every few weeks and also use the individual post header using 2011, which I really like, partly for that function.

The only time I have not been able to post a header is when they haven't been big enough so sometimes I err slightly over 1000.

What's the file for your image?

I'm trying to add a custom header image to the twenty eleven theme. I tried a 1000x288 as jpeg. After seeing strange results I tried png with the oddities remaining the same.

Here's what I did:

* create an image with 1000x288
* upload at theme > design > header

first oddity:

* I get asked to crop and publish the image, despite the help article (http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/custom-header-image/) stating that, if the uploaded image has the exact size (which is the case here) I should not get asked to crop the image.

second oddity:

* when I check my blog I can see the image for 2 minutes or so, but then it is gone. In chrome I see a broken image (http://cl.ly/0B1x1k0t2B0A1z3X0c3V) in firefox I don't see any image at all. when I go to theme > design > header I still see the correct image

What's going on here? Can someone help me troubleshoot this problem?

Cheers
