 * Just a simple question. How do i increase the width of the sidebar?
 * I can’t seem to find it anywhere how to change it. I don’t know if this helps,
   but here is part of a style-blue.css thing:
 *     ```
       /*------------------------------------------------*/
       /*-------------------[SIDEBAR]--------------------*/
       /*------------------------------------------------*/
       #sidebar { float: right; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; width: 222px; }
       		.sidebar-box { padding-top: 5px; margin-bottom: 0px; float: right; width: 212px; color: #FFF; padding-left: 10px; }
       				.sidebar-box a:link, .sidebar-box a:visited, .sidebar-box a:active, sidebar-box a:hover { color: #FFF; text-decoration: none; }
       				.sidebar-box ul li { margin: 5px 3px 3px 0px; }
       				.sidebar-box-inside { padding-left: 10px; }
       				.sidebar-box ul { list-style-image: url(images/sidebar-bullet-Blue.gif); }
       				.sidebar-box h2 { font-size: 18px; color: #FFF; font-weight: normal; text-transform: uppercase; font-family: Trebuchet MS; background-image: url(images/h3-bg-Blue.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: left; width: 200px; height: 31px; padding-left: 22px; padding-top: 10px; margin: 0px 0px 0px -10px; }
       ```

 * You’ll probably need to adjust the width of the content then increase the width
   of the sidebar. Looking at your css (I couldnt get it to look right with firebug,
   I think the sidebar background image width was throwing it off)these are what
   you would need to edit.
 *     ```
       #left-div {width: 693px;}
       .home-post-wrap { width: 693px;}
   
       #sidebar { width: 222px;}
       .sidebar-box { width: 212px;}
       ```
