Never mind ... it's all OK now. That text/link disappeared. </p> <p>This whole process is kind of mystical, Key Master!</p> <p>but thank you again for being there, and for answering endless basic questions! </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/how-do-i-make-the-little-words-in-my-banner-image-go-away#post-649 Mon, 15 Sep 2008 05:13:35 +0000 quercus 649@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>Wow, thank you so much for your speedy response!</p> <p>Now that I have the computer to myself again, I tried adding your suggested bit in to my header CSS.</p> <p>Here's my current, edited header CSS:</p> <p>/* =Header<br /> -------------------------------------------------------------- */</p> <p>#header {<br /> background:#181E24;<br /> }<br /> #blog-title {<br /> font-size:36px;<br /> line-height:54px;<br /> font-weight:bold;<br /> letter-spacing:-1px;<br /> padding:99px 0 0 0;<br /> border-bottom:1px solid #242A30;<br /> position:absolute;<br /> left:-9000px;</p> <p>}<br /> #blog-title a {<br /> color:#fff;<br /> text-decoration:none;<br /> position:absolute;<br /> left:-9000px;</p> <p>}<br /> #blog-description {<br /> font-style:italic;<br /> padding:8px 0 63px 0;<br /> color:#fff;<br /> position:absolute;<br /> left:-9000px;<br /> }</p> <p>-----------------------------------------------------------<br /> It doesn't seem to make a difference. The words are still there. But I also realized that those words that are superimposed on my header image aren't just plain text. They are a clickable link to my blog front page. Which seems like a pretty good idea, if I could just reposition it. LIke maybe to a button next to the "About" button that's already there. And then I could call the new button something like "Blog Front Page". Would that be possible? </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/how-do-i-make-the-little-words-in-my-banner-image-go-away#post-648 Mon, 15 Sep 2008 02:14:52 +0000 Ian Stewart 648@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>#blog-title,<br /> #blog-description {<br /> position:absolute;<br /> left:-9000px;<br /> } </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/how-do-i-make-the-little-words-in-my-banner-image-go-away#post-647 Mon, 15 Sep 2008 02:01:42 +0000 quercus 647@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>So, I was feeling pretty pleased because I successfully created a Thematic Child theme and I uploaded my own header image. Admittedly, my layout still looks primitive, but those felt like small victories.</p> <p>Except that...</p> <p>over at the left of my banner image, the text of my blog title and subtitle still show up, in a small font, superimposed on my image.</p> <p>I presume I want to leave them in the code somewhere, for search engine reasons... but how can I disappear them from my banner image? </p> <p>I've tried reading forum posts and tutorials, but I'm stumped.</p> <p>My blog (with no posts yet) is at <a href="http://www.bendingtreearts" rel="nofollow">www.bendingtreearts</a>(dot)com(slash)blog. </p>
