 * Hi!
 * I am trying to find a way to make (text)block narrower than the global site width.
 * So in the example page I want the text between the images to be narrower than
   1000 px but still have it aligned left. Another way of explaining this is that
   I need indents left and right (same size).
 * Can anyone suggest a solution?
 * Thanks!
    Paul
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Ftextblock-width%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi Paul,
 * Thanks for posting.
 * I visited the site, but I don’t think it’s currently running our Tribes theme.
   Please visit your Appearance menu and you can find the active theme you have 
   there. Clicking on it will reveal the name of the theme developer and a link 
   to their website for contacting them for support.
