    Hi Victor:

    My name is Eric Zimmermann. I am a DJ/MC, Pianist and Bandleader in Los Angeles.
    I am working toward launching http://www.weddingandeventpodcast.com

    I want to establish the header artwork for the site. I went to "Appearance" and looked for "Header" and "Header" wasn't there.

    I tried installing the "Genesis Custom Headers" plugin but I got a message that I have to have the Genesis Framework already installed.

    I really thought that I had had the genesis framework already installed before I downloaded and activated "procaster" a wordpress podcasting theme.

    I have the Genesis Framework installed on http://www.weddingmusiclaca.com.

    Question: Do I have to purchase the Genesis Framework again for http://www.weddingandeventpodcast.com? I thought that I could use it on up to 3 additional sights?

    Sincerely, Eric Zimmermann Elegant Music

    Once you buy the Genesis Framework and a child theme, you own them. There's no license key required or limit to the number of sites you can use them on. On any Genesis site, you must have the framework installed and a child theme built for the Genesis framework activated. Never activate or customize the Genesis Framework directly. All customizations are handled by the child theme.

    Support for custom headers is enabled in the child theme.

    Thank you Victor.

    I was able to download the the latest version of Genesis Framework

    "...but the package could not be installed. No valid plugins were found." />

    I am wondering if Bluehost could install it for me?

    Genesis is not a plugin. It's a theme. You have to install it under Appearance/Themes

    Think of Genesis Framework as a base, or foundation.

    The "child theme" sits on top of the foundation. For example, I have Genesis Frameowrk installed and left untouched. I then have Genesis Sample as the active or public theme that sits on top of the foundation. It is Genesis Sample where I make all my adjustments.
