 * Love the theme!
 * I’m trying to shift my header menu down and left, so it butts up against the 
   website logo. Currently, it’s floating high and right. I successfully changed
   the font size of the menu using by inserting the css from the “Change font size
   of logo title and menu” thread, but inserting align properties in there didn’t
   do anything.

 * To update, after searching through the theme’s css files, I managed to get it
   where I wanted it with some custom css. I added the following to the Theme Options
   page:
 *     ```
       nav.header-nav{
       padding: 40px 0px;
       margin: 147px 0px 0px;
       text-align: left;
       }
       ```
   
 * It’s a really hacked way of doing it that I’m not liking much. The left align
   is fine, but using the margin tag to shift the menu down only works when the 
   screen is wide enough to display the logo and menu side by side.

 * Sorry to “unresolve,” but I’d appreciate a quick tip on how to adjust the position
   of the header menu without resorting to static margins. Is there another way 
   to float the menu to the bottom?

 * The Menu changes are very difficult to implement:
 * 1. Because it contains a lot of CSS rules
    2. To make the changes, by using the
   custom css, you need to rewrite a lot of CSS properties 3. On the menu are runned
   a couple of scripts. Some scripts are for calculations others are for attaching
   the additional items ( arrows, delimiters ). 4. For each type of device exists
   a set of CSS rules.
 * For these reasons it is very difficult to provide a fast, convenient and easy
   to implement solution.
 * To make changes in the best way we must analyze step by step all that is related
   to menu.
 * Unfortunately we will lose a lot of time to provide the solution.

 * Don’t worry about it then.
