 * My website is matthewwakeham.com
 * I want to remove the large black box that is above the name/home link. I have
   tried to locate it but have only been able to find the actual link in the code.
   Where would the code for the box be located?

 * Do you have any design that its supposed to look like. Removing the border-top
   from css removes the black box but the menu will go below the site title.

 * it is a border in _**/wp-content/themes/swiss/style/css/typography.css**_
 *     ```
       h1 a {
       	margin-top:-182px;
       	font-size: 30px;
       	letter-spacing: -2px;
       	padding:9px 0 0;
       	height:173px;
       	width:317px;
       	border-top:173px solid black;
       	float:left;
       }
       ```
   
 * you should be able to overwrite it in style.css of your theme, by adding this
   at the end:
 *     ```
       h1 a {
       	border-top: none;
       }
       ```

 * then leave the border and change the border color to white;
 *     ```
       1 a {
       	margin-top:-182px;
       	font-size: 30px;
       	letter-spacing: -2px;
       	padding:9px 0 0;
       	height:173px;
       	width:317px;
       	border-top:173px solid white;
       	float:left;
       }
       ```
   
 * for those general formatting problems, try working with a browser inspection 
   tool to identify where the elements are formatted in the stylesheet (I for instance
   use Firefox’ web developer add-on).
