I would have to see the logo when it is on your website in order to find out exactly what the problem is. * Could you upload it to your website? Just so I may take a look at the code. * I overall, love the site. 🙂 * Onwards and upwards, -Trey * Thread Starter [Dave Deep](https://wordpress.org/support/users/needforexcel/) * (@needforexcel) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/logo-orientation/#post-4925196) * Hi Trey! * I’v uploaded the logo on the Website.

Then the #branding container has a top and bottom padding of 12px which you can adjust via css. * [DesignsByTrey](https://wordpress.org/support/users/designsbytrey/) * (@designsbytrey) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/logo-orientation/#post-4925235) * It’s looking good now. 🙂 * Thread Starter [Dave Deep](https://wordpress.org/support/users/needforexcel/) * (@needforexcel) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/logo-orientation/#post-4925243) * @StyledThemes – Hi, Thanx for the revert. I already have removed any extra spaces at the bottom and top, but I still feel the space above and below the logo looks bit more. * > Then the #branding container has a top and bottom padding of 12px which you > can adjust via css. * Can you guide me as to how I can get this done?

A Child Theme is the safest and best way to go when doing all kinds of modifications._ * An alternative would be to add code via plugin. I’ve made a [Quick Tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VgdLGi08cO4) for you on how to do that. * Hope this helps! * Onwards and upwards, -Trey * Thread Starter [Dave Deep](https://wordpress.org/support/users/needforexcel/) * (@needforexcel) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/logo-orientation/#post-4925259) * Man thats a helpful tutorial and you have an amazing website.

It just took care of the 12px padding that StyledThemes was referring to. 🙂 * We can go ahead and attack the other menu issue, but first, is this the look you are going for?

I want the Logo to be aligned with the Word “Home” on the Left side, and on the Right Side, the Dropbox Icon (or whichever the right most icon is) should be in line with the Google plus icon. * Deep * [DesignsByTrey](https://wordpress.org/support/users/designsbytrey/) * (@designsbytrey) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/logo-orientation/#post-4925275) * Hey Deep! * I would suggest creating a child theme in order to accomplish this. The reason being, is that your YouTube and Dropbox icons are actually within the same un- ordered list element as your navigation. * This can be achieved via CSS by adjusting your margins and paddings, however, It would interrupt the responsiveness of your website. I’m sure you don’t want that. * After creating a child theme, I would copy over your header.php to your child theme folder and then add a “div” element into your header to place the two icons. After this is accomplished I can use CSS for the exact styling that you prefer. 🙂 * -Trey * Thread Starter [Dave Deep](https://wordpress.org/support/users/needforexcel/) * (@needforexcel) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/logo-orientation/#post-4925282) * Hi! Do you think I will be able to do that? Considering that I have no knowledge what so ever of CSS as well as child themes.. 🙁 * What would you suggest? * [DesignsByTrey](https://wordpress.org/support/users/designsbytrey/) * (@designsbytrey) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/logo-orientation/#post-4925283) * Hey Deep, * Creating a child theme isn’t as difficult as you think. Here is the [DOCUMENTATION](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes) on how to create one. * You just gave me a great idea for a tutorial this week, thanks. 🙂 * [Styled Themes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gejay/) * (@gejay) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/logo-orientation/#post-4925285) * Actually, this theme has a child theme already made. It’s located in the theme folder “child-theme” that you can install and activate. Please be aware though that once you activate it, WP will see it as a new theme and any theme options and settings, widgets, etc, will not be inherited to the child theme version of Celestial Lite Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 18 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/logo-orientation/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/logo-orientation/page/2/?output_format=md) The topic ‘Logo Orientation’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://i0.wp.com/themes.svn.wordpress.org/celestial-lite/3.5.8/screenshot. png) * Celestial - Lite * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/celestial-lite/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/celestial-lite/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/celestial-lite/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/celestial-lite/reviews/) ## Tags * [logo](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/logo/) * 18 replies * 3 participants * Last reply from: [Styled Themes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gejay/) * Last activity: [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/logo-orientation/page/2/#post-4925288) * Status: resolved
