    I added the following Custom CSS and didn’t get quite the results I wanted.  I would like to place the Site Title and Tagline above the custom header. I feel that my custom css is probably faulty.

    #site-details {
    background: url(“http://arnoldgenealogy.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/header_new.jpg”) no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
    height: 180px;
    margin-left: 10px;
    width: 900px;

    I tried to lighten the color of the header text so it would show up better thru the transparent header image but for some reason that didn’t work.

    #site-title span {
    color: #FFFFFF;

    What do you think?

    @chukarnold: yes your custom css in faulty. Just add the logo, site title and description, remove the custom css and let me know it. I will check your site and will send you CSS. You need to use position.

    Thanks very much for your response. I won’t make any changes until I receive  the proper CSS from you.

    Thanks again.

    @chukarnold: To give you proper css. You need to remove the css that you have added for header. And add the header logo and all to default.

    Sorry –I misunderstood what it is that you wanted me to do.  I’ll go ahead and remove the CSS as you suggest.

    I removed the offending css and the page looks better already after inserting the logo. I would like to reposition the two elements so that the site title and tagline are above the header image.

    I really appreciate your help.

    @chukarnold: Just add the following CSS in “Custom CSS” box in your Theme Options panel.

    #header .logo-wrap { position: relative; }
    #site-details { position: absolute; top: 0; }
    #site-logo { padding-top: 100px; }

    #site-details { position: absolute; top: 0; }

    this puts the site title way to the right of the logo.  The size of my graphic I think is part of the problem.  It pushes the Site Title so far to the right that it is partly off the page.   What I was trying to do was to move the Site Title above the graphic –right now it;s below it.  This is not a big problem.  I’ll live with it the way it is for the time being since the original problem has been solved.

    I want you to know that your help has been greatly appreciated

    @chukarnold: Sorry There was missing css. Can you remove the old css I gave you and add the following css. Just copy the CSS code below and paste it in “Custom CSS” box in your Theme Options.

    #header .logo-wrap { position: relative; }
    #site-details { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 20px; }
    #site-logo { padding-top: 100px; }

    That did the job.  It is exactly what I was looking for.

    Thanks for your help but thanks also for the CSS  education.
