Can you tell me how I can adjust (reduce) the size of the background for the mission statement? I am already making use of local.css, but I can't figure out what to adjust to get a thinner strip at the bottom of the front-page image.

Thanks!
Tom.

Use Firefox/Firebug to test your local CSS changes. I'd look at

#mission {
font-size:1.6em;
padding:20px;
}

and

#slideshow-bottom {
line-height:1.7em;
}

as the directives to play with.

Remember to flush your cache both local (I use the clear cache button addin in firefox) and the server using admin/performance.

Thanks - I reduced mission font-size and eliminated padding, so it's thinner now. slideshow-bottom line-height didn't seem to help.

I tried some other futzing via Firebug, but I couldn't make it any thinner. Any other suggestions are welcome!

Thanks,
Tom.

Hmm, maybe try also:

#slideshow-bottom {
min-height:none;
}

Here is my sample from local.css:

#slideshow-bottom {
min-height:1px;
line-height:1em;
}
#mission {
font-size:1em;
padding:0px;
}

I used this information to configure the mission. It works.
But now I made a vertical block with the mission highlighted at the left side.
Width 250px and height 355. The only thing still left to do: the block about 30px from the left side.
Just to change 30px left doesn´t work.
It will looks as the Acquia Slate theme.
So, how can I move the highlighted mission block 30px from the left side.
