 * Hello everyone this is my problem right now. I have the “Contempt” theme and 
   on that theme that are the “Archives”, “Categories”, Blogroll”, and “Meta” sidebars.
   What I want to do is remove them completely and widen the text on each of the
   pages. Can anyone help me with this?
 * I have another question, it appears to me that I will have to do some custom 
   modification to the theme, so will I have to pay to do the custom modifications?
 * Thank you in advance.

 * Alright everyone never mind I thank anyone who would have helped me out, but 
   I found another theme that fixed all my problems. If where having a problem similar
   to mine and you don’t mind changing themes just look for the theme “Coraline”
   you can make quite a few columns or no columns and no sidebars.
 * If you like the theme you have be as specific as you can. I was reading a few
   posts and most of them didn’t say what theme they had, so let people know what
   theme you have so they could look at it and go from there instead of having to
   shoot in the dark.
