HTTP upload errors & slow after changing header area with CSS in Beautiful Pro

[eredmon]

Resistance is futile. I need help.

OS: Windows 7, fully updated
Primary browser: chrome
Beautiful Pro Theme

I'm going to try and anticipate some common questions by writing everything I can think of. If you just want to get straight to the CSS start reading after the dotted line. This is probably 50 percent tech support 50 percent design struggles. I'll take whatever help I can get. A little backstory to paint a picture.

I'm a quasi-noob. Been at this pretty much every waking moment for the past month. I knew close to nothing when I started, in terms of actually developing a real site. I know enough HTML to make a 1990's era awful website and I've used WP extensively as an author. As as result I thought I knew what WP was and I could handle this, expecting and accepting mistakes as the price of an education. YouTube tutorials, sites like W3 schools (among MANY others), forums and the like have so far gotten me over the bridge on any little problems I've had.

I've now got a big problem on my hands.

All I wanted to do was get rid of the header on Beautiful Pro. I thought it wold be easy. All the other CSS has worked exactly as I intended, sometimes after a couple of tries, but I always succeeded before even if I still don't entirely understand the syntax and order of classes despite all the online tutorials.

I am getting crazy intolerable slowness when trying to log into the dashboard. More troubling is I cannot upload photos to the library. No other device is giving me problems so its something on my laptop (which HAVE to use). I've done all the cache emptying a man can do and even deleted the last CSS edit from the editor. The problems started after I used this:

`#branding #site-logo img {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}

body {
padding-top: 0;
}

I visited several sites on advice in removing the padding and upper margins on the heading area. I tried on my own to figure it out without success and this bit of CSS did the trick. However things have been going poorly ever since.

I removed it. That brought pack the top padding errors persist including much slower page load times than before.

Here's the troubleshooting I've done so far:

All browsers (chrome, FF, IE) are having the same issues when logging onto the site and showing errors when uploading images.
I've tried every file format (text and image) in all three browsers. Always with the errors.
The remaining code I have (CSS editor plugin) is:

.page-id-682 .site-title {
display: none;
}

.page-id-682 .entry-title {
display: none;
}

.page-id-682 .widget-title {
display: none;
}

.page-id-867 .entry-title {
display: none;
background-color: #f0f0f0;
padding-top: 25px;
padding-right: 25px;
padding-bottom: 25px;
padding-left: 25px;
}

.beautiful .site-header-banner .page-id-867 {
display: none;
}

.sidebar {
background-color: #f0f0f0;
padding-top: 25px;
padding-right: 25px;
padding-bottom: 25px;
padding-left: 25px;
}

Like I said I know some of this falls into tech support and I will contact them. I would like to rid of all the banner and margin areas of the home banner/header area for a custom look, basically one long image across the top Also would like to wrap the middle of the banner image for responsiveness but that's not crucial right now.

My site is in maintenance mode so if anyone would like to look at it, let me know and I will open it up.

Thanks.

I leaned more about code in one hour than all the tutorials I've watched put together. THANKS!!!!
