 * Hi, I’m a complete novice here so I hope I am able to convey my issue.
 * I currently use two page page templates; one is 3-Columns, the other is 2-Columns.
 * However, the main content column remains the same size in width for both the 
   2-Column and 3-Column page layouts.
 * 3-Column example: [http://vuhoops.com](http://vuhoops.com)
    2-Column example:
   [http://vuhoops.com/recruiting/](http://vuhoops.com/recruiting/)
 * I noticed that they both reference the same Div Content in the style.css.
 * _#content {
    width: 960px; margin: 0px auto 0px; padding: 20px 0px 0px 0px; }
 * So I created a new #content2 that looked like this for the 2-Column Page template…
   _#
   content { width: 1200px; margin: 0px auto 0px; padding: 20px 0px 0px 0px; }
 * But that messes it up because that makes the width of all of the columns (in 
   total) to 1200px. Any ideas or help?
 * Thanks so much.

 * Did you figure this out because I would love to increase the width of my center
   column and my right sidebar….. Any ideas???
 * I also would like to make the page called SERVICES into 2 columns???
