 * I am trying to create more space about the menu so that more of the banner is
   visible. Currently I have used the site title and tagline to do this but I do
   not want this header text showing on my site, however choosing not to display
   it brings the menu up too far. What CSS can I use to control the spacing about
   the header?
 * My site is [http://www.skinworkztattoo.com/](http://www.skinworkztattoo.com/)
 * Thanks and great theme!

 * You can use a little css to make the Title & Description invisible.
 *     ```
       .site-title a {
           color: transparent;
       }
       .site-description {
           color: transparent;
       }
       ```

 * I’d rather hide the site title and tagline completely and use a CSS command to
   increase the space above the menu.
