title: Twitter bootstrap modal popup form - how to lower the displayed form
body: <p>I have recently downloaded TB 2, and have started to familiarize myself with it. I am creating a page based on the hero example.</p>
  
  <p>I have added a popup form to the page, using code I found <a href="http://www.w3resource.com/twitter-bootstrap/modals-tutorial.php" rel="nofollow">here</a>. It all seems to work so far - however, I feel that the displayed popup box is too high up. I would like to lower it a bit, so that I can (at least), see the top of the displayed form.</p>
  
  <p>I used firebug to check out the css. I noticed the styling is coming from bootstrap, from these lines (in order given):</p>
  
  <pre><code>element.style {
      display: block;
  }
  .modal.fade.in {
      top: 50%;
  }
  .modal.fade {
      top: -25%;
      transition: opacity 0.3s linear 0s, top 0.3s ease-out 0s;
  }
  .fade.in {
      opacity: 1;
  }
  .hide {
      display: none;
  }
  .modal {
      background-clip: padding-box;
      background-color: #FFFFFF;
      border: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);
      border-radius: 6px 6px 6px 6px;
      box-shadow: 0 3px 7px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);
      left: 50%;
      margin: -250px 0 0 -280px;
      outline: 0 none;
      position: fixed;
      top: 50%;
      width: 560px;
      z-index: 1050;
  }
  .fade {
      opacity: 0;
      transition: opacity 0.15s linear 0s;
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The "obvious" thing to do would be to add a selector to the element that displays the form and add a new CSS rule to my external stylesheet, or perhaps override/customize a style provided by TB. </p>
  
  <p>HOWEVER, since I don't really know what I'm doing (I'm still learning TB), I thought it best to ask in here in case I ended up breaking the layout I have so far.</p>
  
  <p>What is the recommended way of lowering the popped up form so that I can see the top part of the form, and perhaps a little bit of the Navbar behind it (ideally, though, I would like the popup form to be shown underneath the navbar menu - but that may be too complicated).</p>
