    Hey guys,

    I'm very tech savvy but I don't consider myself a programmer. I'm building a site using the Metro Theme, and I'd like to somehow take the header section (the block around the site title and the widget space to the right of it) and move it above the whitespace content area. I'd like to have background image instead of whitespace showing behind the header.

    Will this be easy to do? Is there a quick way to do that (preferably without an extra plugin), or will I have to trial-and-error it until it works?

    Thank you,

    Wadsworth

    Hi,

    this tutorial will show you how to move the header.

    You will have to set the site-header background-color to transparent.
