 * Hi Berndderbernd. The style you have will work. It’s being overridden by a color
   style so can either use the !important rule:
 *     ```
       #header {
         background: transparent !important;
         }
       ```
   
 * Or target it more specifically:
 *     ```
       header#header {
         background: transparent;
         }
       ```

 * You might also want to add this to remove the boxed layout shadows displayed 
   on either side of the header:
 *     ```
       .boxed #wrapper {
         box-shadow: none;
         }
       ```
