   Is it possible to resize or eliminate the far left and far right page borders under the default template.. They are the main body/page borders around everything... seem to be around 10px or less. I'm not sure if its an actual border or if it is a padding or what. I was able to change the background color but can get this fixed.

   The Green arrow points to what I am talking about.

   It's just a margin, or quite possibly a padding...

   If it's hosted somewhere and you can provide a link i can proberly tell you specifically what you need to change...

   At the moment it would just be a best guess at being the BODY or HTML.. or possibly the container... i can only guess..

   #page is set to a fixed width as is #header img in style.css, it's the nature of that theme...

   Work through the stylesheet removing margins and setting widths to 100% or auto where applicable...

   Please forgive me, i'm still fairly new at this but getting the hang of it. I am still not exactly sure on which stuff to edit and to what values. I am in the style.css and have gone over some stuff non-stop having tried some stuff but its not working :(

   I feel I am messing it up more than fixing it so I restored to where I was when I asked the question.

   thanks.. I figured someone was going to post a link like that.. lol

   I was hoping it was an easy fix like editing one or two certain variables.

   Easy/hard is totally relative to your coding experience, the fact you had to ask is an indicator you would benefit from the above links.

   Thanks for the help, found out from another source that it is actually not a specific variable called upon the css, but rather an image.
