How do I remove the page listing menu in the header in the Twenty Ten Theme?

Question

How do I remove the page listing menu in the header? I would like just the choosen header picture to show up without a listing of all of the pages on the site listed underneath.

Also at the very top or the page it displays the domain and title above the header. What is the best way to eliminate that and just have the header picture hug the top of the screen?

I and using the free theme Twenty Ten. Thank you in advance.

there is a simple fix and that is removing line 103 in the themes header.php file but next time you update the theme it will return so to make you change permanent and still enjoy the updates first Create a child theme and then overwrite the header.php file in your child theme.

its sound hard but its really not:

First create a directory in your themes directory eg my_theme

Then create a new file named style.css and add this to it.

/*
Theme Name: Twentyten Child
Description: Child theme for the twentyeleven theme 
Author: Your name here
Template: twentyten
version: 0.1
*/`

@import url("../twentyten/style.css");

and last copy the header.php file from the twentyten directory to your my_theme and then remove line 103 from it (in your new theme directory).
