 * I started a blog a couple of months (www.overdrive-mag.com) to just play around
   with, but since then I’ve gotten a pretty good local following and its time to
   make it look a little better.
    What I’m trying to do is make the body wider, 
   but keep the categories in the same location. I’m self taught with css and Im
   not saying thats a good thing lol. This is the code I’m currently using…
 * [CSS moderated as per the Forum Rules. Please just post a link to your site.]
 * What I’m trying to achieve is similar to this [http://stickydiljoe.com/](http://stickydiljoe.com/).
   
   I can get the body wider and redo the header to fit properly, but The categories
   always get thrown to the bottom of the page and makes it look sloppy.

 * you can try getting started by changing these:
 * #page
 * change width to 900px
 * #content
 * change width to 650px
 * #sidebar
    change the margin to 0 0 0 692px;
 * #header
 * change width to 900px
 * Adjust the header and page width to whatever you like, ie… 940px, 960px, but 
   you need to adjust the the existing sidebar margin and content width by the same
   amount that you adjusted the page and header.

 * even if there are a few similarities (css is universal), your blog is with wordpress.**
   com **, and this is the wrong forum.
