 * Hi. I have a problem with my site.
 * I have been using your theme to make a site for my band. I dont know when this
   occurd but now i get an ugly horizontal scroll in the bottom of the page. It 
   wasnt there when i started to make the page and i REALLY dont want to do the 
   page all over again.
    Ive tried to use body { overflow: hidden; }
 *  but it really doesnt work.
 * please see this link for reference: [http://piclair.com/5ap19](http://piclair.com/5ap19)
 * Thanks for the help!

 * So you need to find the element that is spilling over the border of the site 
   and give it a little CSS like .element { max-width: 100%; }

 * Any good and easy way on doing that? Kind of a noob when It comes to CSS.

 * Jolausson, if you use Chrome or Safari, you can right click on the area to get
   an Inspect Element command.
 * That will give you the name of the element for your CSS.
 * Modern versions of Firefox and IE have the function as well, but it may behave
   a bit differently.

 * I’ve tried this and i STILL cant find the thing that is wrong. one thing i noticed
   now was that the horizontal bar is only showing when i have the webpage as a 
   Static page. when i have to my latest post there is no horizontal bar. Thoughts?
 * thanks for all the help! you guys are great.

 * Same, it’s really a shot in the dark if I can’t look at the site.
