 * Need following guidance about my site urgently. My theme is twenty ten.
    1) float
   header image to center. 2) Hide site description 3) Hide nevigation bar 4) Boarder
   around my whole content excluding header. 5) Float whole content to center 6)
   Increase the width of my cotent as it seems too congested. 7) Hide search box,
   meta and archive from footer
 * Kindly provide some help as site has visitors and my old theme is quite buggy.

 * I’m assuming you don’t have much CSS knowledge here, but you will need to change
   the CSS found in style.css
 * The code will be something like:
 * 1)
    #header img { margin: 0 auto; }
 * 2)
    #description { display: none; }
 * 3)
    #navigation { display: none; }
 * 4)
    #post { border: 1px solid black; }
 * 5)
    #wrapper { margin: 0 auto; }
 * 6)
    #wrapper { width: 1000px; }
 * 7)
    #search { display: none; }
 * But you will need to identify what the id’s (# tags) or classes (. tags) are 
   by looking in the HTML.

 * what have you tried so far?
 * for suggestions about formatting issues, please post a link to your site.
 * also, as it is not recomended to edit twenty ten directly, concider to create
   a child theme [http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes),
   and work with that.

 * Do not edit the Twenty Eleven theme. It is the default WordPress 3.2 theme and
   having access to an **unedited** version of the theme is vital when dealing with
   a range of site issues.
 * [Create a child theme for your customisations](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes).
   Once your child theme is active, we should be able to help with the customisation.

 * Scoe, I applied the codes specially “display none” but as you can see nothing
   happens.

 * please create a child theme and then fix the validations errors [http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Faccapastpapers.com.pk%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0](http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Faccapastpapers.com.pk%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0)
   before thinking of changing the css styles.

 * solved most of the issues. Now,
 * 1. How to align header image to center?
    2. Increase page width and enclose whole
   contect except header in border? There is no wrapper code. 3. Make Site title
   smaller 4. Change color of page area outside content(which is grey). My site 
   is [http://www.accapastpapers.com.pk](http://www.accapastpapers.com.pk) theme
   is 20 11
