 * I reduced the height of the header image to 250px in [http://www.afstudeerhotel.nl](http://www.afstudeerhotel.nl)
   
   but I can’t seem to change the position of the text. Both the top margin and 
   the space between page title and body text should be adjusted. I’ve set Margin
   and Padding to 0x in my child theme, with no result.
