 * You would have to change the css.
    Its quite complex due to the way the theme
   switches the columns around behind the scenes to keep everything responsive and
   yet have the content in the first column (for SEO purposes) even though when 
   you view the site it appears to be in the middle.
 * Here’s an example css snippet that I already have you could tack onto the bottom
   of your style.css to make the both sidebars fit 160px ads.
    Dont ask me to make
   a custom one to your size specifications though. There’s quite a bit of fiddling
   time involved in that.
 * You can see though from the css below which bits to play with.
    The theme uses
   negative margins to do its work, but if you play with the css below you should
   see how it works in general.

 * The content was increased and the size of sidebar’s is as I want. I just do not
   appear in the sidebar anything.
