Customising your blog header - Wordpress 2 vs, Movable Type 3.2

I spent a frustrating 3 hours last week trying to figure out how to customise the header of a Wordpress 2 blog. Eventually we replaced the kubrickheader.jpg file but we still had a blue backgrounf behind the image. Movable Type 3.2 is far easier to customise as it is closer to HTML in its interface than Wordpress 2.

Wordpress really shouldn't make it so difficult to customise it will alienate the novice user.

Please don't start a MT vs Wordpress debate again. It's simply a matter of taste.

I agree with you John up to a point, but Wordpress's widespread use of php is more suited to the developer/coder. MT 3.2 is html oriented and suits the traditional web designer.
