Widening the Nice Wee Theme

I was recently asked how to increase the width of the Nice Wee Theme. By default the main (text) column is 450 pixels wide; this user wanted the main column to be 500 pixels so he could add wider images to his posts. This can be done by making six alterations to the theme’s style.css, including increasing the overall width of the theme from 730 to 780 pixels.

In case anyone else is in the same boat, here are the bits you need to alter (line numbers are indications only – yours may differ):

line 22
#navmenu
width: 500px;

line 303
#page
width: 780px;

line 311
#header
width: 500px;

line 331
.narrowcolumn
width: 500px;

line 338
.widecolumn
width: 500px;

line 643
#sidebar
margin-left: 565px;
