In Custom CSS where it says Use layout's stylesheet(s) it needs to be set to "no".

The information and space for adding a header is right at the top of the code. To specifically add the one in the sample, use this:
background: url(http://i29.tinypic.com/2hyjqyd.png);
width: 760px;
height: 285px;

I tried the second layout, but there is a stripe below the header image :( What's wrong?

[info]milou_veronica

Woops, that's my fault :P. In #content{ there is a margin-top: 20px;. Just cut this and move it to the .headerimage { section. Or just remove it, if you don't want the gap between the top of the page and the header.

Original code is fixed now. Thank-you for reminding me!

Wow, this is an awesome layout! I took and credited everything in my info. I did use the actual cherry blossom one, only because I'm too lazy to do my own picture and everything right now. It is very excellent and thank you :)

They are all gorgeous, using the second layout with the header.
Thank you!

Oh and would it be alright if I used a background from one of your other layouts (the we don't need to say goodbye) and added it to this layout?
