I found the solution recently on this forum (but can't find it again easily, so thanks and apologies to the original poster for not linking to it).
Make the following alteration/additions to your banner.php, indicated in bold
Upload your background.jpg image to the root directory of your server. The dimensions must match that of the banner, which is 468x60 pixels by default.
......................
// Output the header to let the browser know we are
// sending a graphic file format
header("Content-type: image/" . $SITE['format'] );

$im = @imagecreatetruecolor($SITE['image_width'], $SITE['image_height'])
or die("Cannot Initialize new GD image stream");

// Set colors we want to use...
// first background is a white background
// $background_color = imagecolorallocate($im, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF);

$background_color = imagecolorallocate($im, 0xEF, 0xDE, 0xB3);
$black = imagecolorallocate($im, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00);
$green = imagecolorallocate($im, 0x00, 0x60, 0x00);
$blue = imagecolorallocate($im, 0x00, 0x00, 0xff);
$red = imagecolorallocate($im, 0xff, 0x00, 0x00);

$baseimg = imagecreatefromjpeg("background.jpg");

imagecopy($im,$baseimg,0,0,0,0,$SITE['image_width'], $SITE['image_height']);
imagedestroy($baseimg);


// Make a Border Around the box
.....................
Trickiest part is selecting an image and/or modifying text colours/fonts for good legibility

Seems to be working OK to me, it's just that your realtime.txt file hasn't updated for a while, for some reason.

You don't upload realtime.txt yourself, Cumulus does it automatically. Have a look at the help for the internet settings, and if you need help with this, it's best to start a new thread in the 'website development'.
