  I paid my $15 to customize the CSS, then edited the stylesheet in notepad, copied and pasted it and the sidebar and page width decreased. I made no changes to any width settings.

  Why has this happened?

  The width is actually the same. What’s changed is the background image. On the default blog, hte backgound image actually contains part of the background. It’s done that way so you get that effect along the edge. Here’s an example of the background image. Please note that there’s about 10 pixels on either side taken up by the background.

  Hope this helps,
