    I would like to remove the shading/gradient feature on the Altitude theme and I was wondering if any of you could give me some basic instruction on how to do this. Your help is much appreciated.

    go to line no 1193 of your style.css file and remove the background CSS from .image-section CSS element

    Thanks for the quick response-but I'm not sure I follow.. I've identified the the section I believe to be responsible for the gradient effect (found in style.css) -but I'm not exactly sure which section you're suggesting I remove-do you mind clarifying ?
