 well, first let me say that twenty-eleven is the most professional and
 clean theme I saw for WordPress, congratulations :)

 now the first major problem when anyone start using it, is the header, I
 thought it's for me only but all the topics I noticed in the support forum
 are almost about editing the header and always there is no answer, why
 don't we make it easier to change the header to smaller one like a small
 logo, that float in the middle or the option that admin choose? cause even
 if you edited the style.css it will always floats to left, and the
 background will always stay there.

 to give an example, here you are what I tried on my blog, I reduced the
 size after editing the theme function and the style.css file( which I
 think not every body will even achieve, as I was a while ago :s ) but
 still I couldn't make it in the middle and make this white background of
 the logo transparent to show just the silver background.

 Well, I think that solving this problem is not just a support question as
 it's the first major question for anyone who start to use the theme, " how
 can I change the header image to mine " and for this to be that hard, it
 will really postpone the moving from being admin to being an author and
 write in his blog :) that's why I liked to post this here as an
 enhancement request, and I wish this is the right thing to do :)
