You’ve got some overlap on both sides. This worked for me:
#content {
margin-left: 180px;
padding-left: 0;
width: 565px;
}
Usual stuff about making changes in a child theme if you don’t completely control the theme’s code and want to save yourself potential grief in the future.
Don’t understand what you mean about your home page. It all looked fine to me.

peredur, I copied that into the style.css but the only thing that happened was some text appeared at the very top of the site, no matter where I put it in the style.css. where exactly should I paste this line code?
also, the homepage issue has been settled.
