Slim Down

Just wondering if there was a code that made the boards smaller in width.  Mainly so that it would look sleeker as well as to allow the background to be seen a lot better.  If anyone could help me out with this it would be most appreciated.

Tried it.  It didn't do what I needed it to.

I believe you can do that with margin padding in the css also.  Look for this section in your css.

Code: [Select]
/* The main body of the entire forum. */
body
{
             background-color: #3d2e29;
             background-image: url(URL);
             background-repeat: repeat;
             background-attachment: fixed;
             margin: 0px;
            padding: 12px 30px 4px 30px;
}

Change the 2nd and 4th numbers in this part
Code: [Select]
padding: 12px 30px 4px 30px; to however many pixels you want on each side.  The higher the number the more space in the margins.

Yay!  Thank you.  That's exactly what I needed to do.
