 If you want to test with your own theme, here's how you add support for
 flex headers:
 {{{
 // Add support for flexible headers
 $header_args = array(
         'random-default' => true,
         'flex-height' => true,
         'suggested-height' => 200,
         'flex-width' => true,
         'suggested-width' => 950,
 );
 add_theme_support( 'custom-header', $header_args );
 }}}

 Then when registering default headers you want to specify a width and
 height:
 {{{
 register_default_headers( array (
         'berries' => array (
                 'url' => '%s/images/headers/berries.jpg',
                 'thumbnail_url' => '%s/images/headers/berries-
 thumbnail.jpg',
                 'description' => __( 'Berries', 'essence' ),
                 'width' => 940,
                 'height' => 198,
         ),
 ) );
 }}}

 To display the header you can do something like this:
 {{{
 <div id="headimg" style="background-image:url(<?php esc_url (
 header_image() ) ?>);width:<?php echo get_header_image_width();
 ?>px;height:<?php echo get_header_image_height(); ?>px;"></div>
 }}}
