   Hi there

   I would like to replace my site title with a custom header. However, when I add a custom header it appears as part of the site further down. So my questions are:

   1) How do I remove my site title?

   2) How do I move my custom banner to where the site title is currently?

   3) An extra one... How do I remove the date from blog posts?

   Many thanks in advance.

   Quick note - I do have the custom design upgrade.

   Cheers

   Toby

   The blog I need help with is tobyelliottdotcom.wordpress.com.

   I looked at your website address http://www.tobyelliott.com/ and I found that you are using this image in your header there: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kW2FgrXslxk/Tzl73SZFzcI/AAAAAAAAALQ/8Jj66Wh2MLA/s1600/Header5.png

   You can replace the site title with that image using this CSS:

   #logo h1 a {
   display: block;
   width: 960px;
   height: 184px;
   background: url(http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kW2FgrXslxk/Tzl73SZFzcI/AAAAAAAAALQ/8Jj66Wh2MLA/s1600/Header5.png) no-repeat -20px;
   text-indent: -9999px;
   }
   #header {
   padding-bottom: 0;
   }

   Note that you can change out the image URL to something else if you'd like. If you do, you'll also want to adjust the width and height settings.

   I found that the Vodpod widget you added to your sidebar can be adjusted to fit better with something like this:

   .vp-widget-single {
     width: 240px !important;
   }

   Hi designsimply

   Thank you VERY much for the header answer - it is MUCH appreciated!

   The vodpod widget doesn't want to get smaller - any additional help with that?

   Many thanks

   Toby

   Please try this instead:

   div.vp-widget-single {
     width: 240px !important;
   }

   Let me know if it works.
