    I want my sidebar image widget to fit into dimensions properly.
    Looking at CSS files? I cant see anything suggest width or pixels? But
    I know my template is max 1200 px wide. I have main content space (width?) and a column for widgets Left space(width?)

    If someone can tell me width of the widget, I just use and keep it the original size.

    Appearance/Editor/ Templates sidebar-2 php + sidebar.php and run search for ‘#sidebar’ but nothing there to find or change?

    You can easily find that info by using a browser tool like Firebug or Chrome Developer Tools to look at the rendered page – and the relevant CSS. “Inspect Element” will show you all the CSS for that element.

    BTW, if you are making any changes to the theme files, be sure you are using a child theme

    Otherwise your changes will be lost when the theme is updated.

    See:

    Read the link I posted about Child Themes – they are a way to make changes to a theme files (not theme settings and options) without losing the changes when the theme is updated. If you are doing anything in the Editor (i.e. theme templates or style.css for the theme), you should be using a child theme. Theme files are replaced when the theme is updated and it’s important to do updates for security and compatibility reasons.
