Arrgh. Will LJ forever curse me at every turn?

Could someone who knows more about LJ than myself offer some advice for my layout plz??

So, you may've noticed I've been messing around with my layout today. I made myself a new header, and changed the layout to 'Mixit: Bookworm White'. I added the CSS code:

#header-inner {
background-image: url("http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o145/rogueandkurt/testmggheaderbybatgurl88copy-1.jpg");
height: 380px;
margin: 0 auto;
}

#header {
background-image: none;
}

as per the LJ tutorial, and made my header match 940px wide (as the TUT suggested), but I still can't stop the dang thing from repeating at the top. I tried making it bigger and smaller, but that just made the problem worse (it got even more 'tiled' looking, at the bottom as well).

I've been working on this for hours now, and I'm obviously LJ-challenged, but if anyone has a suggestion for how I can fix it, I'd be forever indebted.

Thanks, guys!
