Hi! I have a few questions on this theme:

1. How do I increase the width of the blog using CSS?

2. Is it possible to completely override the theme’s CSS on the homepage? I am wanting to have a static front page with a slideshow of images, but want the rest of pages to be like how it is now.

3. On the iPad, the header aligns to the left and not the center, so it looks a bit off, how do I change that?

Any help would be appreciated.

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

1. One way to increase the width would be by using:
```
.active-sidebar-primary-sidebar #page,
.page-template-nosidebar-page-php #page {
  width: 800px;
}
```
Do bare in mind that the theme uses media queries to adjust some elements when the screen size is smaller.

2. Yes, you would use the body classes to do that. So let’s say that you have a blog page the class ‘blog’ is added to the body element of the HTML. When you are viewing a specific post/page a class with an ID is added to it as well. When you are on the front page it adds the ‘home’ class. So all you would have to do is make sure that all your CSS is preceded by ‘home’ ie:
```
.home #page {
  /* styling of the page */
}
.home .widget {
  /* front page widget styling only 8/
}
```
3. Can’t really be of much help other than saying: use firebug to find the ID/classes for the needed CSS modifications you want to see. ( I don’t have an iPad otherwise I would pinpoint it out much faster. )

Hope that helps a little bit. :)

I checked http://raiaajihil.com/ on an iPad and the header looks centered to me. Did you change any settings?

Are you still having trouble with the alignment of the header on an iPad?
