I think I would write a custom page template and use that to refer to a different .frontPageboxStuff class, this is similar to how the Gallery page template works.

@jamesgibbon,

thanks James that did exactly what I was looking for! But, how do i get this adjustment to not apply to the home page? just the other pages.

thanks in advance!

line46

/* -----PAGE STUFF----- */
.boxStuff {max-width: 420px; padding: 0 50px 30px; position: absolute; top: 50%; left: 50%; display: none;}

Change top:50% to a smaller value

Hey Justin, thanks for the reply. I cant seem to find

element.style {
display: block;
margin-top: -75.5px;
}

in my Style.CSS file, could it be somewhere else?

the site is peterandtregg.com

thanks in advance

Hey Jiddle!

In your Style.CSS file, find the following:

element.style {
display: block;
margin-top: -75.5px;
}

Adjust your "margin-top" and you can pull up the content body. Now, I haven't tested this in every instance, so I suggest saving a backup of your original Style.CSS file first - but, that should do it :)

Good luck - Let us know how it goes on Twitter @themolitor and @justinhandler!

Anyone know how to minimize the margin at the top of a page with text?

Every page (besides the home page of course) loads with the top of the page in the middle of the screen. I would like my pages to load with the first sentence of the page towards the top of the page. Hope i am making sense.

any help would be appreciated.
