    Hello!

    Trying to shift the content towards the center of the container on my homepage. Im using the Magazine Pro theme; and have limited css knowledge to play with. Now the content appears to the left of the page, not in the center.

    On the pages with sidebars, the sidebar is to the right and the main content to the left, Look like theres a gap between them. Does not look to nice....

    Any hints on how to improve the site would be highly appreciated.

    To center the content, add margin: 0 auto; to the .full-width-content .content code block in style.css at line 491.

    As for the gap between the content and sidebar, it's only 30px. You really don't have a lot of room to play width. The width of the parent container for both areas is 1140px. Your content area is 750px and your sidebar is 360px. Add those together and you get 1110px. You can expand either the content area, the sidebar area, or both to bring them closer together. The content area width is at line 469 in style.css. The sidebar width is at line 498. Whatever you do, don't create the situation where the content width + sidebar width exceeds 1140px or you will push the sidebar down below the content.

    Regards,
