I should have put more detail in my question. I have gimp and created an image of size 1000 x 185 (which was the size of other banners I have). The problem was it did not fill area for banner, so thought it was an issue with kodi.
There is a site that hosts banners for moves, music and tv shows... https://fanart.tv
If you want to create your own then you will need photo editing software like photoshop or gimp.
This page will detail the image specifications so they are correctly displayed in Kodi and accepted by fanart.tv if you choose to share them... https://kodi.wiki/view/Artwork_types

If you replace an image with another image with the same name, eg replace banner.jpg with a new banner.jpg, then Kodi will not update the cache for 24 hours since the original image was checked. Just need to wait.Does 24 cache apply to everything. would explain why when I change different things it seems to hold original info.
