 * How does one make the 2015 theme full width, keeping the sidebar as is? It appears
   to be very complicated…
    Thank you Melanie

 * Hi, the theme uses the sidebar for navigation, how do you want to make it full
   width? when will the navigation be?

 * Hi Dimitris, the navigation stays the same, I would like to make the content 
   wider with the footer the same size using % to make it more responsive, there
   appears to be 2 backgrounds, one which includes the content and footer and a 
   white background underneath all, cant seem to change the colour of the white 
   background…this you can see when you zoom out

 * I think i got what you mean, you want to keep the layout but use all viewport
   size, that will take good knowledge of CSS at least.There are some rules in the
   theme that restrict the max-width
 *     ```
       @media screen and (min-width: 59.6875em)
       {
       .site { max-width:1403px
       }
       ```
   
 * and then there is a technique for the responsive called ‘negative margin’ there
   are a lot of articles explaining how it works.
 * about the backgrounds, i dont see the second background but firebug will help
   you
