 * i’m not sure but it looks like that area gets covered by your header-graphic,
   but yeah I saw the blue area for a second as it loaded so that was kind of strange.
   What theme are you basing this on (base, ha, pun intended)?

 * i see 🙂 You mean you don’t want your site to show the title “Mozilla Firefox”??
   🙂
 * I have some code like this, near the top of my header.php
 *     ```
       <title>
       <?php if (is_home () ) {
       bloginfo('name'); echo " - "; bloginfo('description');
       } elseif ( is_category() ) {
       bloginfo('name'); echo " - "; single_cat_title();
       } elseif (is_single() || is_page() ) {
       single_post_title(); echo " from "; bloginfo('name');
       } elseif (is_search() ) {
       bloginfo('name'); echo " search results: "; echo wp_specialchars($s);
       } else { wp_title('',true); }
       ?>
       </title>
       ```
   
 * that comes from a version of the default theme. Hope this helps ya. You can strip
   it down to a more basic way, but that fancy way gives different titles depending
   what part of the site you’re on.

 * <title><?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?> <?php if ( is_single() ) { ?> » Blog Archive
   <?php } ?> <?php wp_title(); ?></title>
 * that’s the only thing in the header that has the title stuff in it…what do I 
   change?

 * There is only one place where the h1 is alone!
 *     ```
       h1 {
       font-size: 4em;
       text-align: center;
       display:none;
       	}
       ```
