  Can someone help me out with getting a clean White backround?
  I’m really not familiar with CSS.
  My website is: epicponyz.com

  You will first need to purchase the Custom CSS Upgrade – http://faq.wordpress.com/2007/10/18/about-the-custom-css-upgrade/

  Once you do so, you can use the following code to get yourself a white background:

  body{
  background: #ffffff;
  }

  bubel – is wp.com going to provide CSS support now?

  epicpontyz – the theme you are using doesn’t support a custom header but if you search the forums, you can find out how to add it to your CSS.

  Do NOT buy the CSS upgrade until you’ve tested what you want to do in the free preview and learned that it works. We get so many complaints from people who pay for it, then can’t use it, as if they’d bought a car without learning to drive. There is NOT much support for it, to say the least, if you run into trouble. You’re going to be effectively on your own.

  Is there a way to widen the text field of my blog? It’s too narrow. I have the CSS upgrade. I just have no clue where in the CSS text I need to be focusing on. Pixel? Margin? Buffer? What do I need to change? TIA.

  There will be a width element in the css for the content column. The only problem is that your content and the menus etc will be held inside a larger box (im guessing with a width of 800px). So if you want to expand your content, you will also have to increase the overall width of your page, or make the menu column thinner.
