    I'm a starting new user to WordPress and so far so good i'm getting along preety well.
    Now i am facing a problem. I used a picture above the main menu at the front page. But i think the space between the menu and the picture is to big. How and where in WordPress can i get ride of the margin/space?

    This is what i mean:

    Do you have a link? As I would need to see the HTML/CSS to figure this out.

    Sorry, I don't use any 3rd party themes, so I'm not familiar with it. Perhaps someone else familiar with this theme would be better placed to answer it, though if you have modified the theme from the original people may not be able to find the problem unless there is a link to the code unfortunately.

    Good luck.

    On this guys website, if it's similar to yours has the following code:

    #site-title {
    padding: 4em 0 3.6em 0;
    }

    And the fix:

    #site-title {
    padding: 4em 0 2.9em 0;
    }

    In the Mystique theme directory there should be a file called "style.css". This change should go in there. Find the corresponding #site-title in there and change the margin value I indicated.

    Make sure to take a copy of the style.css file, incase you need to revert the changes.

    I've never used the Mystique theme I'm afraid, it's partly why I can't tell you exactly where it should go, as I don't have a sample link.

    Sorry I can't help any further, all you may do is give it a go. If it doesn't work at least you can rule out that file.

    Good luck.
