   Hi, I searched the forum and can not find any items related specifically to the "left sidebar width". Specifically I'd like to make it about 1/3 wider than the current one. I noticed that the right sidebar, (activated by the default sidebar option, than choosing my custom sidebar) is much wider. I'm looking for one somewhere in between the two sizes for my left sidebar. Thanks, Nathan Rossman

   Hello nathanrossman,

   Open up /wp-content/themes/awake/style.css and around lines 292 - 296 you can find the left sidebar CSS,

   /* ------- 3. Left Sidebar ------- */
   .left_sidebar #main{ float:right; width:665px; }
   .left_sidebar #sidebar{ float:right; width:235px; background:url(styles/_shared/sidebarL-top.png) no-repeat scroll 177px top transparent;}
   .left_sidebar #sidebar .content{ margin-right:40px; background:url(styles/_shared/sidebarL-middle.png) repeat-y scroll right top transparent;}
   .left_sidebar #sidebar_bottom{height:20px; background:url(styles/_shared/sidebarL-bottom.png) repeat-y scroll 177px bottom transparent;}

   You will want to reduce the width on the first line and increase the width of the second one. Let us know if this works for you nathanrossman.

   Hi Elliot !

   It's possible to put the sidebar more on the top, neer the head ? I use elegance with à right sidebar.

   Thank's !
