  I’d like to move the secondary sidebar from Oxygen entirely, so my images and content can extend across two column layout not a third column. Some help with the CSS stylesheet would be great.

  Drag and drop the widgets you need from the secondary sidebar to the first

  Here’s the link to the stylesheet for the version of Oxygen we run here at WordPress.com so you can locate the selector required https://wpcom-themes.svn.automattic.com/oxygen/style.css
  Note: The custom design upgrade does come with Staff support but you will have to be patient while waiting.

  @irenehomes and ecostyle2012
  This is a custom design thread posted in the CSS editing forum.
  You failed to post the URL starting with http:// for your blog(s).
  You failed to state whether or not you have purchased a custom design upgrade. http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/
  If you do not have CSS editing skills and have not purchased that upgrade do not post into this thread again please.

  I’d like to move the secondary sidebar from Oxygen entirely, so my images and content can extend across two column layout not a third column.

  To hide the secondary sidebar ( the one on the left ) on the Oxygen theme showcase page template, add this to your Appearance → Custom Design → CSS editor:

  .page-template-showcase-php #secondary {
  	display: none;
  }
  
  .page-template-showcase-php #content-wrap {
  	width: 100%;
  }
  
  .page-template-showcase-php .wp-post-image {
  	width: 588px;
  }

  To hide the secondary sidebar on posts and pages in the Oxygen theme, add this:

  #secondary {
  	display: none;
  }
  
  #content {
  	margin-left: 0;
  }

  Note that if you’d like the widgets that are in that sidebar now to still show up, you should move them into the other sidebar using your Appearance → Widgets page.
