I'd like to make my text for posts run wider than it does on the
templates. The posts end up looking very long because the text portion
is so narrow. How can I do this? Right now I'm using the "Thisaway"
template and if I could, I'd like to expand the text to fill in the
wasted space.

Hi webfixer, here's the blog address:

http://winerocks.blogspot.com/

Sorry, I'm not particularly technically proficient. Where can I find
css code? Thanks.

try this.....

this controls the text position.....

.post {
margin-top: 0;
margin-right: 8px;
margin-bottom: 14px;
margin-left: 21px;

adjust margin-right and margin-left to suit

reduce the number to draw text to the outside of post area

BTW.....you find the css code by......going to EDIT / HTML

the css code is between the <HEAD></HEAD> tag

preview / save
