 * I genuinely like this theme. It works perfectly for our purposes, especially 
   since mrtom414 showed me how to modify the width of the site-title.
 * This is another question about width. What determines the width of Twenty Eleven
   sites?
 * I don’t necessarily want to change the width of [http://lakewooducc.org](http://lakewooducc.org)
   but I don’t know enough to be able to answer that question for myself: what determines
   the width of Twenty Eleven sites?
 * A follow up question would be: is it possible to alter that width somehow?
 * Many thanks for this super clean theme!

 * in your case, as you have chosen the ‘one column’ theme option, it is line 195
   in style.css:
 *     ```
       /* One column */
       .one-column #page {
       	max-width: 690px;
       }
       ```
   
 * for the two column options with sidebar, it is line 75 in style.css:
 *     ```
       #page {
       	margin: 2em auto;
       	max-width: 1000px;
       }
       ```

 * Thank you very much alchymyth!!! Ultimately, I’m going to leave it as it’s set,
   I think, because it really works well as it is on smartphones, but want to experiment
   with widening it a little. Thanks again.
