you could check with your webhost to see if they have a backup?

To prevent this from happening with every update you would need to make a copy of the graphite theme you edited and rename it as your custom theme then go to the admin panel and upload it. Make sure you have zipped your new theme folder before uploading it. Remember to update the theme.xml and the theme images so you can easily locate your theme. Never delete the graphite theme.

I have reuploaded the theme , reinstalled, nothing. all themes now 824px. any ideas
