  Hi!
  I would like the text in my posts to be centered but with a fixed width. My photographs are 900 pix wide, so I would like the text to stay within that. Now the text goes beyond the photographs on both sides.
  Can someone please help me? :)

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  One way to do that in the Able theme would be to limit the width of the main container. Here is an example:

  #page-liner {
  	max-width: 980px;
  }
  
  #main {
  	padding: 0;
  }

  Will this constrain the headnings for the posts as well?

  There isn’t a way to just constrain the text? My header got smaller…

  There’s always more than one way to do the same thing. :)

  Try this:

  .entry-content {
  	width: 900px;
  	margin: 0 auto;
  }
