 * I would like to change the content box to the full width of the page. However
   I am not finding a width specified for the content in the Stylesheet.

 * Have you tried to look for the class selector `.contentLayout .content` in your
   style.css file?

 * Hi friend,
    If you use Firefox and and extension called Firebug its really easy
   to find the value that you need to change. I successfully was able to widen the
   content using it. It looks pretty even at 995px. Firebug says that you need to
   edit line 1562 in style.css.
 * It will look like this.
 *     ```
       .contentLayout .content {
           border: 0 none;
           float: left;
           margin: 0;
           overflow: hidden;
           padding: 0;
           position: relative;
           width: 995px;
       ```
   
 * Its location is [http://gunter2.virtuallyassistingu.com/wp-content/themes/spiritual_awakening_pee109/sytle.css](http://gunter2.virtuallyassistingu.com/wp-content/themes/spiritual_awakening_pee109/sytle.css)
 * The style to be edited is .contentLayout .content and change the width property.
 * I believe that this will change the content width for ALL your pages though. 
   But I only see that you have one page, so that probably is not a big deal. Let
   us know how it goes.

 * I found this code:
    /* begin ContentLayout */ .contentLayout { margin-bottom:
   0px; width: 1000px; position: relative; } /* end ContentLayout */
 * I tried changing the width to 2000px, but nothing changed on the page.

 * Nope, you have to keep going until you find the one that looks like this. Do 
   you have ftp access to your site to download the sytlesheet? If you do I can 
   edit it quick for you and send it back if push comes to shove.
 *     ```
       .content {
           border: 0 none;
           float: left;
           margin: 0;
           overflow: hidden;
           padding: 0;
           position: relative;
           width: 995px;
       ```

 * Oh crap! I forget. Your width will read 601px! The 995px is what I changed it
   to on my end. Code will look like this
 *     ```
       .contentLayout .content {
           border: 0 none;
           float: left;
           margin: 0;
           overflow: hidden;
           padding: 0;
           position: relative;
           width: 601px;
       ```

 * I even screwed the code up a third time! Wow, here ya go.
 * ‘.content {
    border: 0 none; float: left; margin: 0; overflow: hidden; padding:
   0; position: relative; width: 601px;`
