I want to make my website wider, at the moment its 800pixels wide, but I have no idea how to make it any bigger then that. Can you explain what I need to do, and what files I need to edit (images etc etc)

You need to play with your CSS. Looks like you already have so why not adjust the width? Find the spec that says 800px and go from there.

My problem is that, I did try to do that, but when I tried to figure out which numbers to change the forums didn't stretch and pretty much had an ugly blue rectangle on the right side of it. I'll go play with it now and post questions when I get stuck.

Most of your problem is css-based and not cms-based so you might be better off asking this on a css-related forum (what i mean is more helpful and insightful answers)
Hope you figure it out. Lots of nested divs in that skin of yours  <a href="http://www.domenlo.com">Surreal Art</a>

Yea, I only asked because I was roadblocked.. and had no idea where to go V.V but you definitely did help me.
Added 3 hours 22 minutes later: Im having a problem with my forum posts now, they are WAY to wide and I have absolutely no idea how to fix it. Let me post a screenshot to show you what it looks like.  |

Don´t use pixels. Use %.
Replace all the 800px to 100% (or better: 98%). This way all the sizes are relative to the screen size and the containers and you will avoid a lot of the border overflows. orestes

# orestes : Don´t use pixels. Use %.I just tried doing that, and honestly it made it worse. At the moment I just want to fix the forum problem because I'm frustrated with it. |

If the site is 1000px then the bodies of everything else should be 20px less making it 980px. Or at least thats how it seems to work on my site.
if you wish redscar you could send me your CSS and tell me how wide the site should be and ill see if i can make everything fall nicely into place |
