  Strange, I’m not getting that problem when I view it. I’m not seeing your blog name anywhere but in the header/toolbar thing…

  Perse,

  I had unchecked the show title box. It’s there now right in the middle of my pic.

  I think this is one for the Staff. Your theme displays that way in the preview; I know that because I’ve previewed it for my blog (but didn’t choose it. Bet you can guess why:)).

  Well, I’ll tag this for Staff, but that’s about all I can do.

  Thanks! Maybe I’ll try another theme, if I can’t move it.

  WRONG! Please consider lurking for a month and create a private blog where you can keep a collection of relevant links to refer to.

  The black box in the header is a feature of the theme. See here
  http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/hemingway-rewritten/ and here http://hemingwayrewrittendemo.wordpress.com/

  To remove it create an image with your Site title text and tagline on it and upload it here >Appearance> Header
  Images should be at least 1280 pixels wide. Suggested width is 1280 pixels. Suggested height is 426 pixels.

  Then scroll down to Header Text __ Show header text with your image and disable that display.

  Lastly, don not remove the Site Title and optional tagline from the page > Settings > General because if you do you will have trouble getting your content indexed be search spiders.

  Before you comment on any theme related question cosult the theme description and live demo site. Then load into your private test blog and work with it there. Then use the search utilities I previously told you about in another thread. Lastly, post the correct answer into the thread.

  Thanks Timethief. It was easier for me to change the theme. I didn’t realize the box was built into that theme. I’ll have to play around with WordPress for a while until I’m comfortable using it.
