I just activated this theme for my blog and I like it a lot but the only problem I see is that the there's white space on both sides as if the theme is not stretched to the sides completely, I hope I make sense. Please take a look at it and tell me where to tweak the code to fill the whole page. http://fx-currency-trading.mcdwgbiz.com/ Thanks, Ruben
it looks like your them e is a fixed width. i only had about 2 inches of white on each side. you can make the background the same color as the blue and then the white is gone
You need to go to appearance tab on the left (whilst logged in) and then click on editor and find a file called style.css then go to line 17 of that file you will see something like: body { background-color:#FFFFFF; font-family:Arial,Verdana,Sans-Serif; font-size:76%; } You need to change this line : background-color:#FFFFFF; The "#FFFFFF" is a hexadecimal representation of the colour white, go to google and find a colour you would like to set your background to and then set the correct hexadecimal code and you should be done.
If you are a little knowledgeable in CSS, you could go into your CSS files and adjust the size of the sidebars, and overall width of the template. Make sure you change everything including font size, Or, Instead of using definite px measurements, you could try using 100% for your width settings. This does not always work, and I usually use a theme that measure the way I want before I even consider using it. Changing the background is a simple fix. Putting a border sometimes also helps define the area more. It's usually not a big deal as long as it is laid out well, and the overall design is good. How big is your monitor ? If you have 19" widescreen and up, just about every site has space around it..that doesn't mean that everyone sees it that way.
