Put this into your Look and Feel page -> Header -> Input your own Header HTML:
CODE
<style type="text/css"> div.blogheader, .caption {
background-image: url("http://www.blah.com/image.jpg");
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background-position:center; }</style>


^ change the image URL.

.... Ew, Scriptina.
Anyways, sure. Just crop the images as close as possible to the letters as you can and make the background transparent.

^ do you have photoshop or paint shop pro?

If no, I assume you most likely have MS Paint.

Here's a tutorial to make your image have a transparent background:

(even though it's about avatars, I think it still does the same thing)

You have to choose the background as transparent right when you are starting a new file, otherwise it won't work.

You're using a bright color, such as green or pink, correct?
