    Ok guys, I'll admit I'm a newbie, and probably should be paying someone to do this. I'm using the eleven40 theme. While I build out the site, I'm wanting to create a "Coming Soon" landing page where people can sign up to be notified when we launch. I've done a few edits to my landing-page.php file already, but have a few more questions/needs.

    Take a look at this screen shot to see what I'm talking about: Screenshot

    I would like to remove the horizontal line that appears towards the top of the page.
    I would also like to position the "iPad" image in the center of the page. I will be inserting an aweber form inside of the image. But I'd like for the image to be centered on the page...does that make sense?

    Thank in advance for any help!

    Use the backgorund-position: center; in the CSS

    You can also use the advanced image settings by editing the image after its inserted.

    Hover over the image until a small window displays and click the small icon.

    You'll find advanced settings for a border, alignment and horizontal/vertical spacing.

    Might need to see the page live to remove the line after inspecting with Firebug.

    Can you post a link to your site please.

    Brad, the problem with just inserting an image into the page is that I need it as a background image....i think. I'm wanting my aweber form to go inside the image, so the image has to be a background image on the page?!?

    Kevin, did you try setting the background position to center?
