Hi, I don't know how to remove the white box at the top of my lj. I'm using Generator. And also, is there a way to create a margin around the text in the sidebar? Help is much appreciated!
the code:

To change the margin, look for "sidebar font, etc" or whatever is there.. You'll see "padding: 5px;" and just increase that number to increase the margin.
