    My business has three distinct areas under one umbrella – all related but each with their own specific audience. I want to use a different image header and background combo for each page – but the theme I have (twentytwelve) only lets me put one header and one background thoughout the entire blog/site. Can this be done with a widget? or other theme? Or should I consider using three separate websites linked together somehow?
    Thank you. Guidance appreciated, lots of ideas but less experience with web design and the options available.

    The blog I need help with is liloveve.com.

    You could swap out the header image on a per-page basis. View the page source and look at the body HTML tag. Pick out one of the classes and use it instead of “.page-id-62” in the following example:

    .page-id-62 #masthead > a {
	background: url('YOUR_IMG_URL') no-repeat;
	display: block;
	width: 100%;
	height: 250px;
}
.page-id-62 img.header-image {
	display: none;
}

    Replace YOUR_IMG_URL with the link for the image you’d like to use on the page you’re targeting.

    Your current http://liloveve.com/ site doesn’t have any custom CSS saved, were you testing it in a preview? What did you replace YOUR_IMG_URL with from the example?
