   I have been editing the inove file and have done well :) LOL

   I figured out how to remove the text from the blog title and caption but there are a few dash looking lines in the upper left corner of the header - right above and below my wife's head.

   How can I remove those?

   I will need to re-edit my header file also as the text is not very readable... not too bad for my first photoshop experience though :)

   So what do i need to do to remove those. Thanks for your help in advance.

   I'm assuming you managed to fix this as I can't see any dashes now.

   unfortunately not :(

   If you look at the blog header picture, the leftmost picture with my wife in the Puerto Rico shirt, there are white lines above and below her face.. if firefox I believe they are less obvious or only one shows, but IE shows both.

   Do you not see them at all? Ill post a pic to show you what i am referring to.

   Thanks for your help esmi.

   Aha - the line isn't nearly so obvious in FF3 which is why I missed it first time around. Sticks out like a sore thumb in IE8 though.

   Got it! style.css (line 197)

   #tagline {
   border-top:1px solid #FFFFFF;
   color:#FFFFFF;
   float:left;
   font-size:0;
   padding:0 3px;
   text-decoration:none;
   }

   Get rid of 'border-top:1px solid #FFFFFF;'.

   And while you're in there...

   If you want to make the whole header clickable, try changing style.css (line 174) from

   #caption {style.css (line 174)
   padding:25px 30px 0;
   }

   to

   #caption {
   padding:0;
   }

   and style.css (line 177) from:

   #title a {
   color:#FFFFFF;
   display:block;
   font-family:"Trajan Pro";
   height:30px;
   letter-spacing:0;
   text-decoration:none;
   }

   to

   #title a {
   color:#FFFFFF;
   display:block;
   font-family:"Trajan Pro";
   height:194px;
   letter-spacing:0;
   text-decoration:none;
   }

   Appears this area is leaving a small white line..
   

   <h1 id="title">
   <a href="http://www.neilnatic.com/blog/">A Peek at Life as a Natic</a>
   </h1>

   Might wanna drop this part..
   font-family:"Trajan Pro";

   I can't say i've ever seen that font, and i'd doubt your visitors will have it either... unless it's specific to Mac or Unix..

   damn - no go on both of those changes and from both posters :( Any more ideas by chance?

   White lines:
   one of the bars in ie8 went away but i think that the top one is now hidden in the white above the header pic. When i refresh i can VERY briefly see them both. I found another border line in a few lines up and tried to remove that and it did not do it :( Anything else that could cause that. weird :(

   Full size header click: (resolved!)
   I made the change that you had suggested (thanks a bunch btw) and what it did was just go horizontally 194 pixels so it streches across the image but not quite down the image.. it is just the top 1/5th id say.

   Let me know what you guys think. Once again I appreciate it!!

   immediately after that it loads the header image and it covers the top line in IE 8... i wonder if they both are no longer visable in ff

    WOW!

    When i fixed the fully clickable header, it took care of the line that was visable. There is one that is hidden by the image when it loads, but i dont care as you dont see it..

    Weird.. but thanks again...

    Have a good weekend!
