 * Hi there, I am having problems removing the side bars that appear on my site.
   I tried to remove them on the widgets section but it says there are no widgets.
   It seems to be a default, any ideas of how I can get rid of them? Many thanks!

 * you have to edit the template file. most likely
    /wp-content/themes/tickled-pink/
   index.php remove the line that calls in the sidebar.
 * You will also need to edit style.css to make your main content area wider.
