Never ask theme related questions without naming the theme and giving a link.
There are hundreds of themes out there… all different code.
The editing will probably occur in your CSS file. What theme are you using?
Sorry bout that, the theme is Minimalist Fever 1.1
Bump, really need an answer to this.
I cannot say for sure this is the answer.
I extended the width of my whole blog and as such needs to also extend the sidebar and “content side” (the panel of the left where you write).
What I did to extend the content side was change the width of the Post Styling from the initially 555px to 600px.
/* Post Styling */
#content
{
float: left;
margin: 20px 0;
padding:0 0 0 1em;
background: #fff;
width: 600px;
I don’t know whether this is what you are asking as I’m a newbie myself.

I’ve figgured it out, whoever made the theme didnt put in the content width but i just added that width code and it seems to work.
Thanks for the help.
As was mentioned before, all themes are coded differently – part of the greatness that is open souce and the internet! I’ve seen themes where all the divs were in another language. It’s just the way the web works, and rather than say something like “whoever made it didn’t…” just understand that the next theme you look at is guaranteed to be different in an entirely different way.
Another option is to change your theme, if you don’t have too much work invested in your Minima theme. You could try any of the many fluid width themes on here:

There’s no harm in installing some other themes, switching to them to test it, and switch back if you’re not happy.
