Answer №1

When working with inline elements, such as the image in the banner, it's important to note that their default vertical alignment is set to baseline. If you prefer the alignment to be at the top, you can use the following CSS:

.Banner img {
    vertical-align: top;
}

View jsFiddle example

Answer №2

The reason for this issue lies in the height of your image:

<img src="/Images/Banner.png" height="200" width="1350">

Answer №3

Consider utilizing the display:flex; property within the style of .Banner.

This CSS3 feature allows for displaying an element as a block-level flex container.
