 * Hi there, I’ve got more or less the site I want – [http://pennettahouse.com/wordpress/?page_id=8](http://pennettahouse.com/wordpress/?page_id=8)–
   but I’m looking for a surefire method to decrease the width of the #main wrapper
   or alternatively, the individual pages, to bring the text in line with the rest
   of the page contents.
 * I’m using the “Make” theme, but I’m a little worried about editing as I’ve had
   Internal Server Errors in the past. Can I achieve this through adding CSS in 
   jetpack?
 * Thanks in advance.

 * yes.
 * however, the site does not seem to have a `#main` wrapper;
    please use a browser
   inspection tool to identify the involved CSS classes or ids. also, imho, there
   is not enough sample text in the linked page to find out what text you are trying
   to bring into line with some content.
