How to add images to the header:

- From the ‘Edit Content’ tab, hover your cursor over the header section, and click ‘Edit Image’ when that button appears
- In the settings pane on the left, click ‘Replace’
Click ‘Upload Image(s)’
Note: You can upload an image from your computer, select a previously uploaded image, choose a stock photo from our gallery, or import images from your Dropbox account.
Drag and drop, and use the ‘zoom’ slider to adjust the image placement
- Click ‘Save’
- Toggle ‘Apply to all pages’ if you’d like this image to be set as the header image on all of your website pages
- Click ‘Save’
Note: These themes use the header image as a full-page background

From here you can click the tablet and mobile phone icons in the top right corner to preview how the image will look on those mobile devices.
- Dragging the image: Depending on the image size there may be some room to adjust the vertical and/or horizontal position. Click and drag the image vertically or horizontally to set it in place. If nothing happens when you click and drag, this means the image has reached the smallest size possible for the space.
- Zooming: Use the zoom slider to zoom in or out on the image. After you zoom you can click and drag the image to the position of your choice.
- Click ‘Save’

New ideas[edit]
I have some new ideas which makes more easier the edit of the projects and make more comfortable these projects for the users.
My ideas are the following:
- Consolidated User pages which are let to the users to aggregate their former and recent user pages if they want. This programme can gather together their datas, contributions and so on if they give their other user pages identification datas and after that their consolidated contributions appear in the list of their contributions.
- Edit counter which let to the editors to display the number of their edits, new articles and contributions in other projects of Wikimedia.
- WikiTrans, which works as the Hovercards now, but it shows the frequently appearing sentences in different languages which could be set in the settings of this programme. It can help for those users a lot whom can not really have foreign language skills.
I know these are only ideas, but I hope these new features could help somewhere in the future for users of Wikimedia to enjoy more their contributions in the Wikimedia projekts. But I have no skills to edit or create these functions so if somebody see fantasy in these ideas please try to create it. Porbóllett (talk) 08:59, 4 February 2015 (UTC)
