# Header/Slider issues

 * So, I managed to delete the title, tagline and social icons from my customiz’d
   website, but there is still a lot of empty space with a grey bar in it above 
   my slider. The slider and featured pages take up SO much room- I’d like new visitors
   to see blog posts “above the fold”, so to speak!
 * I did manage to make my slider shorter, which is good; I still have playing with
   it to do. But I’d also like to decrease the white space above the slider and 
   between the slider and the featured pages, as well as make the featured pages
   pictures smaller and possibly the text as well. Honestly, just getting rid of
   the unnecessary white space would probably make everything work pretty well for
   me.
 * Before you tell me to use a child theme, I have considered it, but I have no 
   experience with it and this is the only change to the CSS I anticipate making.
   I just want to see if anyone has a solution before I go gallivanting off on an
   escapade that will eat a lot of time.
 * Here’s the custom CSS I’m currently using(notes from the coder, not me):
 *     ```
       /* Site Title & Logo               */
       .brand a            {display:none;}
       /* Logo                 */
       .tc-header .brand   {display:none;}
       /* Social Icons         */
       .social-block a     {display:none;}
       /* Tagline              */
       .navbar-wrapper .navbar h2, h2.site-description  {display:none;}
       /* Navbar               */
       .navbar .nav        {display:none;}
       /* Navbar box           */
       .navbar .navbar-inner {
       -webkit-box-shadow: none;
       -moz-box-shadow:    none;
       box-shadow:         none;
       background:         none;
       -webkit-box-shadow: none;
       -moz-box-shadow:    none;
       box-shadow:         none;
       }
   
       #customizr-slider.carousel .item {
       height: 400px;
       min-height: 400px;
       line-height: 400px;
       }
   
       /*Reduce vertical space between slider and feature circles*/
       #main-wrapper {
         margin-top: 1px;
         margin-bottom: 1px;
       }
       .marketing {
       margin-top: 0px;
       }
       .marketing .span4 + .span4 {
           margin-top: 10;
       }
   
       /*Reduce space between features and buttons*/
       .fp-text-one {
       	margin: 0;
       	}
       .fp-text-two {
       	margin: 0;
       	}
       .fp-text-three {
       	margin: 0;
       	}
       ```
   
 * I would be happy to link to my site, but it is adult.
 * Thank you for your thoughts!

 * OK. First, try:
    `.tc-header {display:none;}` which will remove the top Navbar
   area.

 * Wow! That worked. There is still a bar of white space, but it is significantly
   reduced. (I’m pretty sure I had that code in the custom CSS at some point- I 
   have a notepad file with all the code I have tried as well as what I’m currently
   running- but obviously it had some issue that I missed.) The title of the latest
   blog post is now above the fold, yay!
 * Do you have any thoughts for reducing the white space between the slider and 
   feature pages, or possibly reducing the size of the feature pages?
 * Thank you so much!

   for size 😉
