How do I save the header images so that they will not disappear after an update?

Atahualpa Easy Header Mod Ver 3.6.7
If you want to save your custom header, logo and favicon images you should really have a look at this thread...
HOW TO: MultiSite or WP Multi Network: Easy Header Images
I know it says multisite, but in Atahualpa 3.6.4 ~ Mod Version 2.0 was set to default to
single site mode and adds all the features you want in either
single site or multisite.
The new MOD release for Atahualpa 3.6.7 will be out withing 48 hours (it is finished and under test). Because it is now for both single sites and multi sites it is being renamed to:
Atahualpa Easy Header Mod Ver 3.6.7
Easy Header Mod only required you to upload (replace) 5 files (no cut and paste).
Headers Images, Logos, and Favicons are uploaded via the WordPress Image Uploader.
When you do a theme update, your images are safe in the standard WordPress locations (not in the theme folders) for both the
single site and multisite modes.
There is one additional step, you upload the theme files and then upload the Easy Header Mod. If you do the automatic update from WordPress.org, you can still add the Easy Header Mod and your header images, logos and favicons will return! (Almost like magic!)
After more testing, perhaps the Bytes For All team will add this mod to the theme as it is now working on Production Sites in
Single Site, Multisite, MultiNetwork and even WPMU is still supported.
I have 3 dozen sites using the Easy Header Mod.
