 * In the HoPE theme, is it easy to remove one of the side columns? I prefer a 2
   column layout, but this theme is beautiful.

 * Yes its simple enough to change it to a two-column theme.
 * You just need to edit sidebar.php and remove the closing div of id=”sidebar-1″
   and the opening div of id=”sidebar-2″ which will make it one sidebar. Then in
   style.css edit the content, secondary (this is the width for 2 sidebars so you
   will only need to make it the same as sidebar with padding) and sidebar id’s 
   width to compensate for the extra space.

 * Looking for help on putting the main nav below the main image instead of to the
   left?

 * Sorry for the late reply. I am a fan of a single sidebar and I was looking into
   removing the second one.
    Cheers.
