Page name vs. Banner conflict

I noticed that if I name my blog (under Options/blog title)
I end up with the title running across my custom banner, which is bad,
since I made a custom banner with a custom logo (instead up text).

If I don't name the blog, the page title ends up blank and the footer info disappears.

Is there a workaround for this?

Thanks in advance,
Steve

Technically your logo and masthead background should be separate. But if, as in your case, they're part of the same graphic, you just need to open style.css and add a 'text-indent:-9999px' to the <h1> tag and to the #description ID.

Hi

OK, I "uncommented" the "h1, a#logo " (in the css file) giving me:

h1, a#logo {
text-indent:-9999px;
width:320px;
height:108px;
background:url(images/logo.gif) no-repeat;
margin:0 auto;
display:block;
color:#FFF;
font:1.6em Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
text-align:center
}

so now I have a white box stroke in the banner area. also could not locate: #description ID in the css file.

Thanks,
Steve

You should only uncomment that if you have a graphical logo that sits on top of the banner. Otherwise, undo what you did and use the text-indent solution.

Thanks, I managed to confuse myself, I reloaded the original css file and added the
"text-indent:-9999px" to both:

h1, #logo

h2#description

and that seems to work!

hi this solution works great, is there a way to make the banner clickable back to the home page?

You could always use an anchor tag in place of the <h1> tag.
