Remove spacing & adding spacing
If you compare my site to the template demo, you can see that space shouldn't be there.
Second, I need to know how I can expand the size of, and change the color, of the black navigation bar/header at the top.
I imaging most of this would be simple CSS.

open /wp-content/themes/cresendo/styles/default.css
find two following lines
#top-container {
background: url("default/bg-top.gif") repeat-x scroll 0 0 transparent;
}
#top-container {
height: 70px;
}

Josh Sauberman says:I made this change Arnav, but it's not the same as the theme. If you look at the theme, the slider drops below the blue. Any thoughts on this?

Arnav Joy says:find out following line
#slider-container2 (line 444)
replace the whole with
#slider-container2 {
height: 464px;
margin-top: 0;
position: relative;
top: 28px;
}
adjust the top top: 28px; with desired
and then find
.slider-separator
replace with
.slider-separator {
margin: 61px auto 35px !important;
width: 940px;
}
adjust the
margin: 61px auto 35px auto !important;
to desired - 07/28/12 1:36am
Josh Sauberman says:Thanks Arnav. I haven't tried it yet, but I image your suggestions will do the trick. The site isn't for me so I'll run it by the person I'm building it for and follow your advice if I need to make the changes.
Cheers!

1) The difference in spcaing occurs due to the "header-text" element in both
In the original theme, the header-text contains a paragraph(slogan) in addition to the main heading
In your theme, the header-text contains no paragraph and hence the class noslogan
One more thing in your theme -> you have used some images of dimension 460px instead of 464px (which is the height of the slider) and there are some inconsistencies if you notice....
add the following to your css to remove the spacing and background will fit as in the original theme
#header-container.noslogan {
background-position: left -52px !important;
padding: 0 0 0px 0;
}
2) To increase the height of the navigation and other stuffs, add the following code to your stylesheet
If you are going to add any other elements below the logo or the navigation, the following will be useful -> Increase the height
#top-container { background: none #000000 !important; height: 114px; border-bottom: 6px solid #e2e2e2; }
Otherwise, you just want to expand the size of the navigation container with no new elements...i suggest the following ->increase the padding so the elements will remain in the center
#top-container { background: none #000000 !important; height: 70px; padding: 25px 0px; border-bottom: 6px solid #e2e2e2; }
You can change the background color, border color and any other thing as you wish....

.slider-separator{margin: 40px auto 40px auto !important; width:940px}
change that to change the height of the spacing. For example if you want to increase the space by 10 pixels the new code should be
.slider-separator{margin: 45px auto 45px auto !important; width:940px}
Hope this helps.
