I'm working with the Prose child theme on the Genesis framework from Studio Press at the moment for several applications.  It is a premium theme you have to purchase, but I think it's worth it.  A lot of customization is possible including the header.  I would like to hear though about a quality free theme with customizable headers.

I'm using Twenty Ten for the Jazz Butchers' site. It looks like your mom's logo would fit right in that top image...

I also did a search over at wordpress.org for "custom header image" and came up with quite a few that might work. You'd have to tweak colors and add some plug-ins. 

 

If all else fails you might need to "get under the hood" and adjust the css file.

I mention my favorite free theme in one of my latest episodes.

This theme should work. If not let me know. It's easy to create a .png image that will do why you want.

I used the Constructor theme to build soldinshelbyville.com and it's a very flexible free theme.

Eric,

 

The TwentyTen theme that comes with Wordpress is very customizable...especially since it's free. 

 

You should be able to resize her logo to fit within most headers.  Plus, you don't want site visitors to have to load a full size image/logo.  Google is starting to demote websites if they have slow loading times.  Check out www.photoshop.com, or Aviary.com to do simple photo editing.
