Just installed and have questions

    First of all, I would like to say thanks for WP. It seems much easier than the alternatives.

    I have installed the latest version at http://www.outdoortorture.com and easily implemented the Maple-Leaf theme.

    Since I would like it to be a Review site, I also installed Zensor, Roll Manager, and Xavin’s Review Ratings.

    My first question is this. How exactly do I change the fixed width of my site?

    Also, I would like to incorporate a 728 x 80 banner into the header image (which I am about to change), a 468 x 60 banner at the bottom to the right of the footer text, and some 120 wide by 300 or 600 sky scraper banners on the sidebar.

    Thanks,

    Jamey

    1- Change the width:
    Change the 894 in you css stylesheet to what you want.

    #base {
background:transparent url(images/bg_repeat.png) repeat-y scroll center center;
border:0 solid red;
margin:0 auto;
padding:0 28px;
width:894px;
}

    About Your Ads:
    I could never figure out how to display a banner overlayed onto an image.

    Other than that, to put banners in your sidebars it works to paste the banner code into a text widget and place that widget where you want.

    If you want to put a banner somewhere within the post, you would (most probably) put that code within single.php.

    If you want to put a banner into your footer, put that code into your footer.php.
