Removing space above header image

Hi, I have a similar problem to some others – too much white space above the header image. After searching for hours through support threads, I tried some custom CSS, but nothing seems to work. Please advise. Thanks much.

[Aside: I love this theme. I switched from a paid theme to this and now have it for 2 sites. Thank you. Simple, clean.]

Custom CSS added as below.

//
#header-img {
padding-top: 0;
margin-top: 0;
}

.header-wrap {
margin: 0;
}

#site-title {
margin: 0;
line-height: 0;
}

#site-description {
margin: 0;
line-height: 0;
}
//
