 * I’ve been looking through wordpress.org themes for ages (and wordpress.com themes
   as well) but can’t find the kind of theme I’m looking for, and I could really
   use some help. It’s very possible I’m not searching properly. I feel really lost,
   basically.
 * Is there a theme with a wide 650px (or larger) main column for posts with one
   right sidebar, and a header and background that can be customized?
 * Difficulty: I can’t code. I’ve seen several posts of people widening the columns
   or sidebars of a theme and it’s absolute Greek to me. The best solution, as far
   as I can tell, would be to find one that is already wide so I don’t have to do
   anything beyond new graphics in the header and possibly background.
 * I have a feeling you’ll say all of the themes can be modified this way, but can
   they be modified by someone who doesn’t know how to code?
 * Please don’t tell me to just stick with Blogger, because it sucks so bad its 
   suckitude cannot be accurately quantified.
 * For what it’s worth, two examples of themes I like are [brblack](http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/brblack)
   and [Grey Opaque](http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/grey-opaque).
 * Any help at all would be very much appreciated.

 * well, mate
    That depends on what purpose your is site is built for and on what“
   theme” the content your site is made.

 * You’re right. It’s my film blog, mostly movie reviews with lots of big promotional
   photos and screen captures. You can see it now at shebloggedbynight.com, but 
   that’s a custom layout on the Blogger template. I don’t want to keep that layout,
   although I do want to keep the wide main column and the right sidebar.

 * Yes they can be modified, and yes, by someone who can’t code. Though by the end,
   you’ll learn 😉
 * Your options are
    1) Find a theme that’s good enough 2) Learn to edit a theme
   that’s almost right. 3) Hire someone
 * Sorry.
