  Hi!
  I have a blog category on my site and I had help with CSS support to center the text. take a look at the link below to see what I mean…

  I love that it’s centered, but I don’t like the fact that it’s so narrow within the screen. Is there way to fix the margins of the post body so the text is spread out over the background wider?
  I would rather have the text look like this:

  You have the following rule in your custom CSS:

  .single-post .content-area {
      padding-left: 100px
  }

  Please change it to the following and see if you like the result:

  .single-post .content-area {
      width:100%;
  }

  Can you help me with my blog too? It’s thescreencave.com
  I’d like to expand the width of the writing so it’s not so narrow.

  Sure @thescreencave :-)

  You can try this CSS which I found on this thread:

  .site-content .entry-header,
  .site-content .entry-content,
  .site-content .entry-summary,
  .site-content .entry-meta,
  .page-content {
  	max-width: 800px;
  }
