You should not set like that , if you are considering iOS 4.0 also

use this

@implementation UINavigationBar (CustomImage)
- (void)drawRect:(CGRect)rect {
    UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"bgTopBar.png"];
    [image drawInRect:CGRectMake(0, 0, self.frame.size.width, self.frame.size.height)];
}
@end

or for iOS 5

use this, no need to give frame to it, and you cant change the height more than 44, the default height of navigation bar is 44

    UINavigationBar *navBar = self.navigationController.navigationBar;
    UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"bgTopBar.png"];
    [navBar setBackgroundImage:image forBarMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];
