 * I am trying to create a template (using artisteer) and then editing it to do 
   what i want. You can see the layout here:
 * [http://wptest.gadgetwebdesign.com/?page_id=13](http://wptest.gadgetwebdesign.com/?page_id=13)
 * What I am trying to accomplish is to have the content area (white box 1098 pixels
   wide) sit between the header and footer (which are both page wide. I would like
   to have the widget areas in the footer sit so they align with the edges of the
   content area.
 * (here is a layout i am trying to accomplish: [http://wptest.gadgetwebdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/ESS_Layout.gif](http://wptest.gadgetwebdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/ESS_Layout.gif))
 * My css is here: [http://wptest.gadgetwebdesign.com/wp-content/themes/evansstreetstationV4_4/style.css](http://wptest.gadgetwebdesign.com/wp-content/themes/evansstreetstationV4_4/style.css)
 * I just can’t seem to figure out what is controlling the placement of those widgets
   on the page. I want the background of those widgets to be white, but I want to
   keep the dark green above the widgets.
 * Anyone have any suggestions on what I can do to accomplish what I am going for?

 * Your best bet may be the [Artisteer forum](http://www.artisteer.com/?p=forums)
   or support page.

 * Well, this is less about Artisteer than it is about CSS… so I suppose I can try
   some CSS forum some where.
 * The question is about CSS in general rather than about something that is special
   to Artisteer. In fact, you can’t really customize CSS through artisteer… you 
   have to do it by hand.

 * Artisteer creates some pretty unique problems for WordPress themes. There isn’t
   a lot of support here for Artisteer, and themes created with it won’t be found
   in the wordpress.org repo.
 * That being said, there are still some pretty darned good tools that will help
   you identify and modify CSS and HTML on the fly (in just the browser, for real
   time testing only) before committing any changes to your actual style sheet.
 * If you’re a Firefox user, the [Firebug extension](http://getfirebug.com/) is 
   pretty handy for doing just that.

 * Thank you for you help… I’ll keep trying to figure it out (used firebug… tried
   editing them div classes i found with firebug but failed miserably 🙂
