    In the normal wordpress you can go to Presentation-->Custom Image header but you cant do that in wordpress mu?

    Any idea how I can let my 'clients' add their own headers?

    Thanks

    It's all in the theme, MU does Custom headers, too. No worries.

    Some themes do, some don't.

    Wordpress.com does a few themes:

    http://svn.automattic.com/wpcom-themes/

    I don't know how many in Farms theme pack are enabled, if any.(Tarski, I'm certain.)

    It is not enabled in most themes, usually you have to modify a theme.

    Here's a tutorial to get your feet wet.

    I'm sure the code for kubrick/default is out there, somewhere.

    That's confusing :S

    What I don't get is that the k2 theme worked fine on normal wordpress, then I installed wordpress MU and I installed the k2 theme again...but now it doesn't have the option??

    ok yeah here's the problem...every time someone makes a new site it doesn't create the needed directories in /wp-content/blogs.dir/

    I have chmodded blogs.dir to 777 and wp-content to 777 and it still doesn't create the needed directories..

    ex:

    wp-content/blogs.dir/5/files/k2support/styles/
    wp-content/blogs.dir/5/files/k2support/headers/

    I need the script to create the folders...

    I would suggest a search as we've covered the k2 themes previously.

    I found this:

    http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic.php?id=2238&replies=21

    but

    A) I cant find where to edit it on the backend (under presentation nothing lets me see it..and under options it doesnt show me a header.php either (or any files)

    B) If I manually open up header.php I can't find (ctrl f) "$path" or "$pic"

    Are you sure you got the correct header.php file?

    k2/app/classes/header.php

    The next theme pack will have a heap of custom headers, it's currently getting, um, testing, over at wpmudev premium :)
