Try editing style.css and changing:
#footer {
background:#BCC5C1 url("images/bottom.jpg") no-repeat center top;
clear:both;
height:455px;
margin:0 auto;
padding:0;
width:100%;
}
to:
#footer {
background:#BCC5C1 url("images/bottom.jpg") no-repeat center top;
clear:both;
margin:0 auto;
padding:0;
width:100%;
}
I’m sorry, I should have posted sooner. I did exactly that! No problem what so ever in Firefox 3.6.3 and IE8 however, I checked on previous versions of IE and noticed weird graphic overlapping between the footer graphic and the main page. I might just be being picky now. 😉 Thanks for the help.
In that case you’ll also need to look at some conditional comment CSS.
Thanks, I think I’ll have to live to some degree with what I have already accomplished. My brain is killing me, I remember just last week asking myself, “what’s a WordPress?” now I’m editing WordPress… lol Thanks for everything,

I was editing this same spot tonight. I reset the height to 120px after figuring out which bit was controlling that gaping open space.
Note to the developers:
The purpose of widgets is to allow users to insert them via wordpress’ dynamic loader if they wish. Your hard-coded Social section breaks that paradigm like a 20 pound sledge hammer. Create the footer bars for dynamic widgets, and then write a custom widget for the social section. I was up an extra 3 hours working out how to remove the footer widgets and adjust the CSS to get rid of the giant gap between the bottom of the content and the top of the footer graphic. Thank you Firebug!
I really do like this theme, but I had to hack the daylights out of it.
please have a look at http://www.werkgroepderuyter.nl
i would like to have the 3 “social connection icons” twitter, facebook and youtube (just the icons) above the “laatste nieuwsbericht” button in the left-sidebar. is that possible?

hi Everyone,
would you please tell how to move the footer as close to the main page as possible in here: http://proetcontra.fi/ This is a client of mine and I’m almost sure she will want the footer right after the page and I seem to have tried everything I can think of… :O/
@fireofliberty – Exactly why it’s a free theme 🙂
