Do you mean the background image for the page?
If so delete or change the background image style.css line 156...
background: url(images/wrap.jpg) top repeat-x;

JeremyMemberI use serverpress to develop locally on my PC and backup buddy to transfer whole WordPress sites on and offline. I have used it for over 6 months and am very happy with backup buddy for the price. themes often release updates and one of the most recent allows me to create new users and databases easily from within the plugin instead of using PHP my admin. Support is also pretty good via their forums

JeremyMemberCustom code has been added setting the width to a fixed 925px.
Start by removing the custom code and it should behave in a way you are more familiar with
custom.css (below has been added to the site)
/** Do not remove this line. Edit CSS below. */.full-width-content #content {
border: medium none;
width: 925px;
}#inner {
margin: 20px auto 0 25px;
}

JeremyMemberfrom the themes how to instructions...
Change the Home Featured Image
In Minimum, there is a large featured image on the home page. To change this, you must swap out the sample image for your own.Navigate to your theme files using FTP or your webhost control panel.
Find /wp-content/themes/minimum/images/sample.jpg
Replace this image with your own image, named the same. The image size is 1600 x 600. Feel free to use any size you wish.

JeremyMemberCould you just place the agency home-welcome below the slider and style it using colour to make it stand out as the call to action?
function agency_home_welcome_helper() {
if ( is_active_sidebar( 'home-slider' ) ) {
echo '<div id="home-slider">';
dynamic_sidebar( 'home-slider' );
echo '</div><!-- end #home-slider -->';
}if ( is_active_sidebar( 'home-welcome' ) ) {
echo '<div id="home-welcome">';
dynamic_sidebar( 'home-welcome' );
echo '</div><!-- end #home-welcome -->';
}}

JeremyMemberNot too sure of the response you are looking for, but I agree with your client. I love responsive design but if the menu doesn't collapse then I don't think it's good usability and a waste of screen realistate.

JeremyMemberJeremyMemberI agree the site is looking great. Good use of color. Two suggestions.... the different sized banners at the bottom of the right sidebar don't sit well. Might be worth changing them to a similar shape like 300x300px. And also the bottom widgets could do ith a bit more work.
But overall looks great 🙂

JeremyMemberAs @cleo3 asked "Where are the tags?"
i realize the forums are only a few days old so there isn't much theme specific content here yet. But in the future if I'm looking for information specific to the streamline theme, what is the best wary to find that info?
Will there be a tag cloud? Or do I just type strealine into the search?
thanks for the detailed explanation Nock. I've got my fingers crossed and hopefully the excellent staff and community support remains.

JeremyMemberHi Nick,
I am a big fan of StudioPress and all the staff who regularly provide informative blog posts, feedback and support. I would also like to add that I'm eagerly waiting to purchase your proposed ebook as I enjoy reading your blog and am learning so much. I commend Brian and Studiopress for constantly striving to improve genesis and the Studiopress experience.
My concern however is that I feel that Studiopress could be doing a lot more to generate the "sense of community" that you describe. I find it difficult to comprehend why the new forums no longer have theme specific categories, allowing people to more easily post and support each other with theme specific questions.
To achieve the "sense of community" that you describe Studiopress really should be doing more to encourage member participation in the forums over people just coming to lurk without comenting or contributing. I feel that features could be put in place by Studiopress to encourage community members to participate in discussions and helping others. For example why don't the new forums display how many posts an individual has made underneath their screen name, or have different titles for users based on participation. The Articuate eLearning community is a good example of a company that have put structures in place to encourage participation amongst users of their product who all ultimately want to achieve the same goal. For studiopress users that is to build better websites.
I always wondered why with the old forums the feature to be able to nominate people as friends wasn't well highlighted. And now from what I can see this feature is completely gone from the new forums.
As I mentioned at the start I am a big StudioPress fan and would like to see the company and these forums succeed. This is why I am taking the time out to write this post and express my concerns.
