 * I was trying to change the height of “Our focus” section. I used the code mentioned
   on this support forum before:
 * .focus {
    padding-bottom: 100px; overflow: hidden; background: #FFFFFF; height:
   700px; }
 * But when I do, it only changes the height from below the widgets. So it leaves
   the white space above the widgets untouched, but lowers the height only from 
   below. How can I change the height from both sides?
 * And does it work the same way also for the “news” carousel and the “about us”
   section?

 * Thanks useful article. Is there also a way to reduce the height of the Main Focus
   section photo, so that I can view the OurFocus section when someone views my 
   website? Thanks
