How do I get rid of empty space above entry content?

    Working with twentyeleven child theme. I’m making a very simple artist site, and my home page is just nav menu, my name, and an image. There’s some really prime real estate above the “entry content” area, and I’ve been trying and trying to figure out how to make it go away. I’ve been looking at it with Firebug, and it really seems like there’s just blank space that’s not claimed by anything else, between the entry content and the banner area.

    I’ve tried fiddling with vertical-align, but didn’t have much success.

    It’s important, because if I can get the painting higher up, I can make it bigger.

    Any help would be SO appreciated! Thanks. The site is here.

    Your ‘site description’ is empty, but the space is still reserved on the screen. Try adding this to the end of style.css:

    #site-description { display: none; }

    Hi! Thanks for responding — sadly, however, adding this line to the css doesn’t seem to make any difference.

    I do not see the code at the end of style.css.

    When I add it in Firefox->Firebug, it works.

    You’re absolutely right; I hadn’t followed the part of your suggestion which mentioned putting this code at THE END of the stylesheet. I didn’t realize that the order of stylesheet code makes a difference, so I had just stuck it into the middle.

    Yay! It worked perfectly, once I moved it to the end.

    Thanks again!!
