Hello,

First of all i really like the look of the templates on the site. Ok with that being said after i purchased and became a template member. I installed the template and well a few things i would like changed around,fixed etc..

I see the color scheme package and the banner and logo packages.. But i dont see anything for changing the layouts around a little to better fit the rest of the site.

I’am using the ja_utahia template. But it doesnt really fit all that well on the site.. At the right of the site there is a blank gap .. That blank gap throws off all the news and makes it looked smashed more then it should.. From other screenshots of other peoples site using this template i see everyone has it on there site.

But is there anyway to make the actual content fit the page correctly? With out having that gap on the right of everything?

That gap also effects the TOP ” header ” of the site. I see the filler image thats used to help make it 100% width in size.. But is there anyway to fix this or to make it work differently?

Try to open up the template_css.css file and find line 802

.auto #ja-header, .auto #ja-topsl, .auto #ja-mainnav, .auto #ja-container, .auto #ja-container-f, .auto #ja-footer
width:85%;

And width: 85% you can try to change to 90% to 100% and see if that do the trick.
And you can find line 826:

#ja-content {
clear:both;
display:block;
height:400px;
margin:0pt;
padding:0pt 25px 25px;
Here you can adjust: padding: 0pt 25px 25px, try to set it to padding: 0pt 25px 5px;

I would also make the left column not so wide.

If this dont help just reply here again

Thank you menalto. It does look better after doing what you mentioned. But it still has a rather large gap.. I noticed this padding or gap is on both the right and left sides of the template if im correct..

As for the left side. Yes i need to bring down the size of that once i figure out where.. Trial and error heh..

Thank you,

You can open the css file again, find line 1188:

#ja-leftcol {
float:left;
padding-top:20px;
width:25%;
}

There you can adjust the width. But then you need to change some graphics also

I didnt want to start a new topic just to look for it.. But the LEFT column is way to big of course.. I know i seen a section here on the forums that had fixes for the left column but i cant locate it now.. Anychance one of you know what happened to it?

The entire left section is way to big. its taken up way to much space..

Thanks for the help/support.
