Hi,

This is my blog link . I would like to increase the width of the post, which looks all funny after selecting the ‘no sidebar’ layout from Appearance > Theme Option.

Thanks for your help

Could you be a little more specific? The link you provided is to site using the Twenty Eleven theme with a static front page which is using the Showcase Template. The Showcase Template is a specialized page template.

I looked at http://www.priad.wordpress.com/ and tried to find where the width of a post looks too small and I thought you might be referring to the posts in the featured post slider. Is that the case? If that’s what you’d like to change, it’s actually a little more tricky than it seems because the showcase template sets different classes depending on the size of the featured image. Looks like the images in your slider are pretty small right now, but to make sure they stay looking good even if you add a larger featured image, I’d give the following a try where the percentages add up to 100:
```
section.featured-post .attachment-small-feature {
max-width: 30%;
}

article.feature-image.small {
width: 70%;
}
```
Side note: Using “!important” is sometimes necessary, but using it too much will often lead to trouble. What were you trying to do with this block?
```
article.feature-image.small .entry-summary p a {
left:0!important;
display:inline!important;
width:auto!important;
position:absolute;
bottom:0;
top:auto!important;
padding:5px!important;
}
```
