Hi!

Is it possible to have a wider logo/head on the webbsite. I want to use an image as a background for the top. It should be about 1004 *170 px. Where do I change this, and how?

the searchbox will be moved down, you will have to work a bit with the search box position afterwood...

Thank you for your help! One step closer now. :)

However, there is a big space below my new header. I don't know how to get rid of it. I want the breadcrumbs (and all content below) to be placed just below the image. But how... :unsure:

I've changed the following line in template.css

#btn_register { margin-top: 91px; }

into

#btn_register { margin-top: 0px; }

This has removed the black box under the large header. The size of my header is 1002px * 90 px

There might be another solution with override.css, however this have been working for me.

Hi

This is a really strange solution :) But if it works than there is nothing to question :)

#btn_login {
position:absolute;
bottom:5px;
right:10px
}

#btn_register {
position:absolute;
bottom:5px;
right:70px
}


#gk-top { margin-top:-40px }


This would be a better solution!

The first two codes (btn_register & btn_login) will change the position of the associated buttons.
The last code (gk-top) is to change to margin of the overall top position.

Please add these codes to the override.css and don't forget to enable it!

Note: I deactivated tools! If you haven't, then you should also change the (absolute) position of the #btn_tools
