 * Hi Everyone,
 * I am trying to bring a static site into a custom theme in wordpress.
 * Everything is fine except some simple styling of the content area.
    I’m sure 
   there is something small I’m overlooking but after 4 hours of looking…
 * its the contentContainer and the contentColumn styles..
 * Thank you in advance for your help with this.
    The site resides here: [ivandds.com](http://www.ivandds.com)

 * Looks like style.css
    #contentWrapper { background-color: #F4EFEA; float: left;
   width: 1000px; }

 * If you are talking about the big blank space — there is an image in there– though
   it’s not showing up — but it’s creating that space. Looks like the image path
   may not be valid:
 *     ```
       <img width="500" vspace="40" hspace="20" height="375" align="right" alt="ivan rodriguez" src="images/office2.jpg">
       ```
   
 * You may also want to validate your pages, as right now, that page shows quite
   a few mark-up errors:
 * [http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fivandds.com%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0](http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fivandds.com%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0)
