 * Hello, I was wondering how i could decrease the size from where my logo is at
   the top left to where the menu is, there seems to be an excessive amount of white
   space.
 * Thanks!

 * Hi [@toolman87](https://wordpress.org/support/users/toolman87/)
 * Thanks for using Vantage. Header padding is an option in the premium Customizer.
   In Vantage Free you can use a plugin like Simple Custom CSS or Jetpack Custom
   CSS and add the following:
 *     ```
       /* Vantage Header Padding */
   
       header#masthead .hgroup {
       padding-top: 35px;
       padding-bottom: 35px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Adjust as required.
 * Let us know how you come along.
