   all of my information. Here is the website address (vegas.rrhcllc.com) and below

 * Have you tried simply adding
 * `width:700px;`
 * to the id content in your css file with whatever width you’d like?
 * Or are you asking for a way to dynamically resize your content based on the size
   of the content you’re emailing?

 * Not exactly understanding your response. I have tried modifying CSS but where
   would I add the code above. Basically, I just want all of the HTML emails I post
   to fully show on the post. Right now, it only shows half of the email

 * You’ll need to edit one id and one class in style.css: #content and .postbox
 * Set the width property like this for both:
 * `width: 100%`
 * You will need to adjust padding/margins for both to make it look right with your
   layout, but this will make all of the HTML fully show.

 * Great! Last thing…. How do I get the Post Title online with post box? (ignore
   the begin forward message and other body text)

 * The easiest way would be to adjust the margin-left property for classes .post_title
   and .post_author in your CSS file, I doubt that that’s the most proper way to
   do it however.

 * Modify it to “relative” or “inline” ?

 * On second thought, since the box is centered on the page, the most proper way
   may be to set your post_title class like this
 * `.post_title {width: 632px; margin 0 auto;}`
 * This will line up the div with the graphic you’ve got, then adjust the padding
   from there.
