Default WordPress Issues

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to get rid of the space that is at the top of my WP Template on my site?

I've pointed the space out on both sides with two red arrows:



If you need the entire website just let me know.

Thanks so much!

Wrong advice

The height of the header image in the original is 213px.

The OP's image is 267px. So is Najat's.

BUT! - if you are able to read the stylesheet, the height of the header div is 217px. You can NOT place a 267px image in a 217px div. It is that simple.

In the first half of the year we are supposed to work for the taxman. I think that's a mistake.
Help me to get rid of the taxman ASAP - thanks! (You, too, should make less mistakes!)

one last try and I'll give up after this

replace your header with the attached one..

if it didn't work out add the theme that I've attached all over again because it is the exact one that I've added in my blog and worked fine

Please, please... why so much nonsense about editing the header.php or the style.css.

Nobody can read?

I posted exactly what to do: CUT the freaking white portion from the bottom of this image:
http://bybonline.info/wp-content/the.../header-bg.png
until you get the right size: 213px high! (now it is 267px and it is PUSHING DOWN whatever comes after....
That's it.

This is what I get when I use that new header:

2010-02-04_0748

The break is still there, and my tabs are gone?

Do I need to somehow move may page below the header UP? If so how?

How do I do that? When I try to edit my header.php I get the following form rather than a typical html code:

Default Re: WordPress Issues

the problem was that your header was measured at 217px, while you only had 213px of color, leaving 5px of white space exposed.... it has nothing to do with the height of that image (as evident to the fact that you're still using the same image). The remaining pixels will just hide if presented as a background image.

your solution of lowering the css height to 213 works just as well as raising the colored area of the image you already had to 217px.

Either way is fine so long as you don't lose anything else in the margins and padding along the way. Which it doesn't appear that you had.

That's it.

The overall height of the image is not pushing anything down. It's presented as a background image. The remaining pixels will just hide.
