    I would like to eliminate the brown background on my blog and add buttons under the sidebar captions rather than having just type. Please see my blog at http://attorneyclientforum.com It appears that the background is fixed, but I could not find the info in the html for the theme. I want to eliminate the background in order to give the blog a wider screen view. I also, want to “fancy” up the blog view by adding buttons..flash would be nice, but I will settle for any kind of buttons. Any other suggestions would be GREAT! Thank you

    Your background is actually an image:

    http://attorneyclientforum.com/wp-content/themes/legal-gavel/images/bgimage.gif

    Either make a new image with the exact same name and upload it to your theme’s images folder or delete this from your theme’s style.css:

    background:url('images/bgimage.gif') repeat;

    As for adding buttons to list items, you will do this by editing sidebar list (ul, li) styles in your theme’s style.css. For instructions and examples, try a Google search for: list-style css

    This would mean converting your theme from a fixed width to a fluid width design. There are fluid width themes available (the easiest option) or try a Google search for: fluid width css
