  Hi. I am trying to figure out how to eliminate the large gap between my navigation tabs and the slideshow. I can’t seem to figure out which CSS block to change.

  Help?

  Try hiding the .welcomebox element in the Modularity Lite theme:

  .welcomebox {
      display: none;
  }

  Great slideshow btw. :)

  That space is where the “welcome” message would go. You can hide that though with the following.

  .welcomebox {
  display: none;
  }

  Just remember that if you decide to use a welcome message later it will not show up till you remove the above from the custom CSS.

  You two are amazing as usual. I kept thinking I needed to do something with masthead.

  I tried looking at the CSS tutorials…….

  Thanks again.

  Maybe we need more tutorials! Hmm. Not a bad idea, not bad at all :)

  OK, one more question. I switched form the dark to lite theme style, made the changes we discussed concerning the header area and I like it better.

  However, I am wondering if the text is too lite now. Do you think I should darken it to make it easier to read?

  The main body text looks good to me. I think the orange color in the tag cloud links is hard to read, try a darker color like this:

  #tag_cloud a {
  color: #930;
  }

  Yep. That’s a whole lot better.

  Thanks.
