    Hi,

    I want to make my current layout wider. I am currently using the right sidebar layout in the backcountry theme. I want to make my content area (on all pages and posts) wider and therefore reduce the space at either side by around 50%. I'd like more space for my blog content to better display my writing and photos.

    I'm relatively new to wordpress so the simplier your replies the better... thanks!
