Dashboard height

Hi, hoping you can help here.
I'm looking to adjust the banner so I can get it to look like this (less tall):

But the best I can achieve is:

I've tried using different shapes and I can get the height right, but with a blurred image.

I do have a transparent PNG that I use for the source of the actual logo, so I guess I need that to appear on top of a grey 'dashboard'. However changing that from using the dashboard.jpg to the logo on a 'CSS' background (with the text moved further to the right) is beyond me...

Hoping you can help as I love the rest of the style.

I managed to resolve this by using a different banner in the end.

I do need to know though how to change the site description text from white to black, as at the moment it looks like this:

I did change the #ffffff to #4C4C4C; in common.css:

Code: Select all

/**
 * Forum name and description
 */
.inventea-sitename {
	position: absolute;
	left: 5%;
	top: calc(50% - 30px);
	color: #4C4C4C;
	font-size: 14px;
}

.inventea-sitename a {
	color: #4C4C4C;
}
But that only changes the colour of the site description, not the colour of the name:

There is quite a lot of black magic in the formatting of the header. The colour setting that you need here is at prosilver/theme/colours.css line 11.

I have been meaning to override that with something in we_universal, but it did not make the cut yet.

Ah so at the moment it will apply to all styles on the forum. I'll hold off changing it for now and will go for a darker background image. Thanks for the information.
