I am working on a poster. As I need to draw a block in a specific position, I do that using varblock. All of this causes a banner at the top of my title block (see the picture). Is that possible to remove that only for my title box?
Here I include some of my code.
\documentclass[final, 12pt]{beamer}
\usepackage[size=custom,width=77,height=107,scale=1.4,orientation=portrait]{beamerposter}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage[pdftex]{graphicx}
\usepackage{wrapfig,xcolor}
\usepackage{array,booktabs,tabularx,amsthm,multirow,amsmath}
\usepackage[absolute,overlay]{textpos}
\usepackage{mdframed}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usepackage{pifont}
\usepackage{multicol}
\newenvironment<>{varblock}[2][\textwidth]{
\setlength{\textwidth}{#1}
\begin{actionenv}#3
\def\insertblocktitle{#2}
\par
\usebeamertemplate{block begin}}
{\par
\usebeamertemplate{block end}
\end{actionenv}}
\usecolortheme{rose}
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}
\begin{textblock}{}[0,0.1](1cm,1cm)
\begin{varblock}[75cm]{}

\end{center}
\end{varblock}
\end{textblock}
\begin{textblock}{50cm}[0,-0.58](1cm,0cm)
\begin{varblock}[35cm]{\textbf{1. Introduction}}

\end{varblock}
\end{textblock}
\begin{textblock}{}[0,-1.4](1cm,0cm)%
\begin{varblock}[31cm]{\textbf{3. Site \& Equipment}}

\end{textblock}
\end{frame}
\end{document}


`, they'll be marked as code, as can be seen in my edit. You can also highlight the code and click the "code" button (with "{}" on it). – Martin Scharrer♦ May 3 '12 at 17:08pdftexoption from thegraphicxpackage, I still get an error message, "Missing number, treated as zero." related tol. 55 \end{frame}. Please check your code and repost it, if necessary. – Mico May 3 '12 at 18:14
