  The header and the bar just below it take up a bit too much room on my site. I’d like to tighten both up a bit, height-wise. I have the custom design upgrade. Is this something that can be solved with just a bit of code?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Do you mean the header area with the site title or the bar with the top navigation?

  Here are examples for each:

  To decrease the space below the site title and tagline in the Parament theme, try this:

  #branding {
  min-height: 50px;
  }

  Adjust the number as necessary.

  To decrease the space below the top navigation bar (or menu) in the Parament theme, try this:

  .hentry, #sidebar {
  margin-top: 20px;
  }
