I am preparing a blog for launch using the Sunspot theme. If possible with Sunspot, I’d like to do the following: In addition to a single column for blog entry text (which I’ve already set), I’d like to remove the left sidebar and use only the right sidebar. I have removed all widgets from the left sidebar. Only an image, the site title and the subtitle remain there. I would like to move them either to the top of the right sidebar or to a header above the column and right sidebar. By eliminating the left sidebar, I’d like to make the space it now uses available for the main text column. Kathryn advises that this is a CSS Customization question. Thanks in advance for your help.

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

Hi, give the following a try.
```
.site-header, #main {
    width: 100%;
}
.wrap {
    background: none;
}
.site {
    max-width: 1200px !important;
    margin-left: auto;
    margin-right: auto;
}
```
As you will see, you need to figure out how and what you want to do about the header image since the theme sizes it to go in the sidebar on the left of the content. Let me know your thoughts and I can help with a solution.

Many thanks for your help with this. It basically accomplishes what I had in mind — but I agree there’s an issue about a fit for the header image. But I’m
going to ask you for a fix on that. I’m learning more about testing alternative themes. At the moment, I’m playing with Twenty Sixteen. I may get started with something like that and make adjustments incrementally after I launch. Thanks again.
