    I have changed to the Eleven 40 theme and just moved all my sidebar widgets over.

    the default sidebar width is 250 but I have a 336px wide adsense which sits in there nicely.

    My question is can I extend the sidebar width to the right to make all the other elements wider?

    This would mean extending the max width of 1140px

    Is there any issue going wider as I don't want to lose any width in the content

    You don't have the room unless you narrow the content area as well. Your content-sidebar-wrap is 1140px wide. Your content is 850px and your sidebar is 250px. 850+250 = 1100. You have 40px to play around with. If you want to make the sidebar 336px, you need 86px. You'll have to make the content area narrower by 46px. It would have to be 804px, then you could have a 336px wide sidebar.

    Thanks, I will have a play with those numbers, but how is the Adsense banner fitting on the page?

    Thanks

    You don't have the adsense banner in a Genesis wrap. It's in its own iframe that you placed just under the body tag, before any Genesis code. An iframe is basically a webpage within a webpage. It has it's own settings.
