I’m thinking about changing my theme to Forever, but the column widths are an issue. I see they are fixed, but would I be able to adjust/”unfix” them in CSS if I upgrade?

To switch the Forever theme to a variable width, give this a try:
```
#page {
width: 90%;
}

#content {
max-width: 100%;
}

#featured-content {
margin: 0 auto;
max-width: 892px;
}

#feature-slider {
padding-top: 1em;
}
```
Note that the image size in the feature slider is fixed by the theme and so that’s why I added rules to center it instead of make it wider.

P.S. The header image on http://katienormalgirl.com/ is super cute!

Sounds great! I wasn’t quite ready to make the switch yet, I’m just planning ahead and wanted to know if it was possible. I’ll give it a try next month when I change over. Thanks for the help and the compliment! :)
