This isn’t really related to the Skype tutorial however I do help with multiple things on this blog. I don’t yet have a post on how to modify this theme by changing the width. In the future if you can’t find it posted send me a direct email from the Contact option However to answer your question. You can do this two different ways. Both involve doing lots of editing and testing. You can do it from inside WordPress from under: Appearance > Editor > Stylesheet Or if you know how to browse to your WordPress theme directory the file you need to edit is style.css In this file I would recommend searching for “width” and then modifying what each instance is equal to one at a time. After go to your blog and refresh: ctrl+r and try to figure out what width setting you just adjusted. Since the position of all elements affects the look of the blog you will have to change multiple widths not just the main column width. You will see how much of a pain it is once you start. Before you start however do yourself a favour and backup the contents of that file

BTW,

Under the BASIC section of lightword’s style.css chaning

img,img a{border:1px solid #EEE;padding:2px;margin-left:-2px;}

img,img a{border: none;}

Seems to do the trick. I know, that must seem obvious to everyone, but I never mess with CSS normally.

Unfortunately from what I can tell your guide doesn’t address the current version of Lightword. I couldn’t find a match to the two lines you posted in any of the style.css file. Just to give you an idea the current version’s content section looks like this

/* CONTENT */
#content-body ul,#content-body ol{margin:15px 30px;font-size:12px;}
#content-body ul li{list-style:circle;margin-bottom:4px;}
.hentry{min-height:150px;height:auto!important;width:550px;margin-bottom:1em;}
.sticky h2 a{color:red;}
.comm_date{background:transparent url(images/date_comm_box.png) no-repeat;height:100px;width:57px;position:absolute;display:inline-block;text-align:center;margin:0 0 0 -72px;z-index:2;}
.only_date{background:transparent url(images/data_box.png) no-repeat !important;height:67px !important;}
* html .comm_date{margin-top:10px;} *+html .comm_date{margin-top:10px;}
.comm_date .data{margin-left:-1px;padding-top:10px;display:block;font-weight:700;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:-1px;}
.comm_date .nr_comm{padding-top:14px;color:#FFF;display:block;font-weight:700;}
.comm_date .nr_comm_spot, .comm_date .dsq-comment-count{display:block;margin:0 9px 0 8px;padding:6px 0 5px 0;}
.comm_date .data .j{font-size:24px;display:block;}
.nr_comm a{color:#FFF;text-decoration:none;}
.cat_tags{background:#FFF url(images/tags_category.png) no-repeat;width:550px;margin-top:10px;padding:8px 10px 5px;}
.cat_tags_close{background:#FFF url(images/tags_category.png) no-repeat 0 -81px;max-height:3px;height:3px;width:550px;margin-bottom:20px;}
.cat_tags .continue{float:right;padding-right:18px;width:100px;text-align:center;}
.cat_tags .category{float:left;width:400px;}
.cat_tags a,.cat_tags .continue a{color:#2C2C29;}
.cat_tags a:hover{color:#ACACAB;}
* html .cat_tags{padding:9px 8px 0;margin-bottom:-3px;}
*:first-child+html .cat_tags{padding:9px 8px 0;margin-bottom:-3px;}
