    Hi,

    I’ve set up this blog and now the owner wants a little more padding of white on the side so there’s more white before it turns gray. I’ve messed around with the margins but couldn’t seem to work it out as I’m fairly new at this.

    Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance!

    You just need to add padding to the #page element.

    Here’s how:

    1. Open the theme’s style.css
    2. Find the #page element (line 83)
    3. Change padding:0; to padding:0 20px;

    This will pad the layer by 20px on the left and right sides, extending the reach of the background color.

    The entire #page element should look like this when you’re done:

    #page {
    	margin: 0 auto;
    	padding: 0 20px;
    	width: 960px;
    	background-color: #ffffff;
    }
