    Hi,

    I'm struggling to remove the blank space above the header, I'm running the News Pro theme:

    Thanks

    You can use Firebug to find the margin and remove it around line 411 in your style.css file.

    /* Site Containers
    --------------------------------------------- */
    .site-container {
    background-color: #fff;
    border: 1px solid #e3e3e3;
    margin: auto;
    max-width: 1140px;
    }

    Thanks very much 🙂 I've got firebug, but as I'm not that clued up with CSS, I rarely find what I'm looking for. It's a bit beyond me. Found the offending 60px though with your assistance above, thanks.
