 * Hello,
 * I am newish to wordpress and have moderate coding experience. I’d like to add
   a full-screen background to the site I am creating (www.dev.sbsa.info). I was
   able to do that- but it created unexpected results because the sidebars and content
   don’t start or end on the same line.
 * Is there a way to use the full-screen background and have the sidebars adjust
   to become the same size (I’d like it to look like a solid three-block wide unit)
   WITHOUT affecting the layout when the site is resized for a tablet or smart phone?(
   That is, I would like the sidebars to be the exact same height as the content
   only when viewed on a larger screen- once the site resizes for tablet/mobile,
   I’d like the sidebars to become only as long as they need to become to contain
   the widgets in each one).
 * Thanks!
    John
