Hi there… thanks for your compliments, however the credit for the template design should go to Phu Ly. I got the flex theme off here , changing nothing except doing minor content and CSS customization to have some things look just the way i want. The black borders around all posted pictures, for example.
Are you suggesting the white strip be moved up to coincide with the bottom of the site header? Or do away with it completely? Frankly, I rather like it where it is… rule of thirds and all.. =)
