Free header images
The header image plays an important role in the appearance of your website. It’s the first thing people will see when they enter your site/blog, so you want to make sure it looks nice.
Now creating header images doesn’t have to be hard – for example, try to take your old holiday pictures, like the one with the beautiful sunset, and cut/re-size them into a nice banner format. Add them to your site and you will see it looks quite nice, without too much effort.
If you do not feel like creating your own header images, here are some nice libraries of free header images for you to use:
