    Hi,

    I would like to reduce the global site's width. I think that the first step is cut the columns padding. Where I can do that? On the style.css file? And the heather and footer's width?

    Thanks

    Yes, all style rules are located in the style sheet, style.css. I recommend installing the Firebug add on for Firefox or using Chrome's Firebug Lite which will enable you to right click on any element to inspect it and determine the associated style rules or the selectors required to create new style rules.

    Thanks SoZo, I try. The evenctually upgrade of the Genesis framework will not influence the child .css file, right?

    Correct. The child theme is not altered by Genesis upgrades.
