 * This might help. Use a plugin like Firebug to inspect the sidebar element to 
   figure out what CSS is used. Then you can target it in the CSS file and change
   your width i.e. “width: 400px;” etc.

 * You’ll need to dig into index.php in your theme files and see where the image
   is positioned in the file. From there, you can move the copy and then use CSS
   to apply padding, etc. to it.
 * Consider making a child theme before your rip apart the theme you have installed.
 * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
 * This will allow you to override things in the theme without touching the original
   theme.

 * You should consider starting with a child theme. It might make things easier 
   to get up and running and you won’t have to write as much php.
 * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
 * If you’re using get_header and get_footer do you have the corresponding php files
   in your directory? i.e. header.php and footer.php
 * All you need is style.css and index.php to get up and running.
 * What you’ve added are php includes to separate the header and the footer code
   so that you can include each or just one in other custom page templates.
 * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development#Basic_Templates](http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development#Basic_Templates)
 * Also, is this a Page Template or a Theme Template?

 * Adding “display: block” to the images should fix it and make the text break so
   images are on their own line like a paragraph break.

 * Nevermind, had to update the code in header.php in my child theme. Back on track…
   my site title had disappeared.
