Try adding:
`max-width: 90%;`
to the .featured-box class

I also offer Genesis theme setup and Photoshop (PSD) to Genesis conversionsHi Jacki
If you're talking about what I think you mean, try adding this to the end of your style.css file:
`#inner { padding-top: 0; }`
Change the number to something like 20px instead of 0 if you want some space still (currently it's 40px)

I also offer Genesis theme setup and Photoshop (PSD) to Genesis conversionsHi Tracy, yes, the original theme comes with some background styles for the footer already added. What we did with that CSS was just to switch them off. Glad it helped, Nick

Personally, I don't offer Blog Subscription via Email, instead I just use an email service (using MailChimp at the moment bu Aweber also fine) but of course it's a personal choice and up to you.
The advantage of email is you could also send people separate emails and not just stuff that's posted on your blog, but a lot of people do like RSS so of course you can do both as well. Perhaps offer an RSS Feeds button for those that prefer to receive in this way and drive everyone else to a free MailChimp account (you can always upgrade later).
On which email provider, the advantage of MailChimp (for many people) is that there is a free account option to use while you're getting started. Though of course this is not the only reason to choose MailChimp so I'd make sure you have a look at both quickly as switching email providers later is not generally ideal.
It's not something you need to spend too much time deciding on though or stop you from moving forward.
Cheers

There's a couple of extra background images in the Outreach theme that are blocking you there. A quick way to fix this would be to add the following CSS code to the end of your theme's style.css file:
`#footer-widgets, #footer, #footer .wrap { background: none; }`
The header looked OK to me?

I also offer Genesis theme setup and Photoshop (PSD) to Genesis conversionsHi.
Not been able to test it all (so please make a backup of the file first) but...
1) if you go to the home.php file under /wp-content/themes/executive folder via FTP and
2) look for this bit of code underneath function executive_home_sections() { you should see
3) four blocks of code three lines each starting with genesis_widget_area( including one called 'home-cta'
4) now if you cut and paste those sets of three lines in whatever order you want you should be able to change the order of these four sections however you want, you can then save or re-upload the file over the old one to make the changesThe only thing that might need doing afterwards is some small CSS tweaks to make sure everything is well spaced as before but this is the core of it
Please do make a copy of the home.php file first though if you're not sure what you're doing so you can always roll back
Hope this helps

I also offer Genesis theme setup and Photoshop (PSD) to Genesis conversionsHi there, I had a look and I think I found the issue.
On Learn To Tint the site URL is: http://www.learn-to-tint.com/
and one of the links (for example) is: http://www.learn-to-tint.com/#servicesOn the other the site URL is: http://www.carwindowtintingtraining.com/
but the links in the menu don't have the www in them (hover over one and you'll see), e.g: http://carwindowtintingtraining.com/#servicesWhen I put the www back in the menu links the scroll thing worked again. (When you're clicking the links at the moment you're sending the browser to another page and that's why it reloads before jumping down)
So my suggestion is go back to the Appearance > Menu links in the WordPress dashboard and (in order of preference):
1) rebuild the menu and see if that fixes it
2) manually change each link in the menu to include www
3) change the site URL to http://carwindowtintingtraining.com so it matches (I'd only do this if nothing else was working)Hope it helps

I also offer Genesis theme setup and Photoshop (PSD) to Genesis conversionsHi Morag
I haven't seen the advice that others already gave you but have you tried adding something like:
.slide-excerpt-border h2 a {
font-family: The font you want;
font-size: 30px;
}At the bottom of your style.css file to target it more precisely
Hope that works for you

If you go to the Blog page under Pages in your WordPress dashboard and then scroll down you should see an area with a few different page layouts (probably two or three boxes underneath the main content area box), here you should be able to choose the full width page layout and then just hit Update
Hope it helps

I also offer Genesis theme setup and Photoshop (PSD) to Genesis conversionsHi - I know that the WordPress SEO plugin by Yoast can kill a lot of those pages (i.e. redirect them and also hide them from search engines), I'm not sure off the top of my head if it can do that for every single one you mention but I'd consider that a good starting place:

I also offer Genesis theme setup and Photoshop (PSD) to Genesis conversionsHi - I'm running 1.9.2 and I've still got access to all those widgets if that helps

I also offer Genesis theme setup and Photoshop (PSD) to Genesis conversionsYou could try uploading it to the your theme directory via FTP and see if that works.
Go to /wp-content/themes/my-theme-name and then probably the images folder and just overwrite any one that might already be there
If still no luck try regenerating the image, maybe at some larger sizes too. Just do a Google Search for hi res favicon generator.
(Also any old one might be cached by your browser but I assume you already guessed that).

I also offer Genesis theme setup and Photoshop (PSD) to Genesis conversionsHi - I don't know if you've already seen this documentation but just in case:
http://my.studiopress.com/setup/agentpress-theme/
In short you need to install and activate a plugin called Genesis Slider to get this part working. If you go to Plugins > Add New > Search inside WordPress you should be able to find it from there. Once you've done this follow the instructions in the link above to get this going.
I haven't set-up the Diverse Solutions IDX search before, but again this is probably a plugin, more details seem to be here:

Hope this gets you going

I also offer Genesis theme setup and Photoshop (PSD) to Genesis conversionsHi Sam - try the 'Read More Link' bit of code on the following page from Greg Rickaby:
http://gregrickaby.com/2011/02/genesis-code-snippets.html
Just customise the text to whatever you want where it says 'Continue Reading...'
This can be added to your functions.php file in your WordPress theme folder (if you're not sure about adding something to this file make sure you make a copy first so you can restore any changes).

I'm running the Metro theme on my site and the links in the comments are 'nofollow' without me doing anything to them so I think you'll be OK too

I also offer Genesis theme setup and Photoshop (PSD) to Genesis conversions***TRYING AGAIN IT WOULDN'T SHOW MY POST EARLIER***
Hi - wasn't sure if this was exactly what you were after but found a couple of things that might work for you.
1) Code to add Next / Previous Post links at the bottom of every post
http://www.binaryturf.com/genesis-tip-add-nextprevious-links-single-post-page/
(Hadn't used before but tested quickly now and worked fine for me)
2) Some kind of plugin like this one from David Decker:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/genesis-single-post-navigation/
Hope they help

I also offer Genesis theme setup and Photoshop (PSD) to Genesis conversionsYes, check out this article from Travis Smith:
http://wpsmith.net/2012/genesis/how-to-remove-the-website-field-from-genesis-comments-form/
You can add this code to your functions.php file (if you're not sure about this make a copy of the file first so you can restore it in case of any issues)
