If you go to your homepage does it display the block properly for you? And does it work when you select any of the other banner styles instead? Also be sure the "Display mission statement on homepage" is selected and the "mission statement" is enabled on your theme's configuration page.

The preface-top block is shown properly with some testcontent, but the mission is missing! mission statement is enabled but where can i find "Display mission statement on homepage"?

anyhow: i worked around the problem by adding
#preface-top .preface-top-inner {
background: url(../images/banner/seascape.jpg) no-repeat right top;
}

to the local.css

another question depending preface-top: is there a possibility that this block is not that high but with rounded corners? now it is 420px but I would like it about 250px

You can enable and disable the display of the mission statement on your theme's configuration page: /admin/build/themes/settings/acquia_slate

Of course to get this to appear correctly you will actually need a mission statement which you can add on your site's information page (/admin/settings/site-information).

I think you can also resize the banner image area with this bit of CSS in your theme's local.css file.

#preface-wrapper {
  height: 250px;
}

Hope that helps!

I couldn't find an option to enable the mission statement in Acquia_Slate -- or in Fusion Core or anywhere. Is there a "master theme" where this needs to be enabled first? I've written a dummy mission statement to see if it could be enabled that way with no luck.

Please see #5 above. In addition, even using local-css, the graphic shows on all pages (not just the front page). I too cannot get the site info mission statement to display; it does not show up in the Acquia_Slate template config.

you can add a block or something in this region as well and the background will appear on your site!

I think a lot of us are struggling to figure this out. Version 6.x-3.0-beta1 of Acquia Slate does not seem to support the mission statement (the theme setting does not provide a checkbox for this). In the post http://drupal.org/node/887158#comment-3345900 mjohnq3 points out that "3.x is different than in 2.x; the Mission Statement is no longer used." However that post suggests that a skinr rule must be created to solve this problem. The URL mentioned for that does not exist on my platform (admin/build/skinr/rules), so there must still be a missing component that needs to be loaded other than Acquia Slate, Fusion, and skinr. If anyone solves this for 3.0, please post the solution.
