new blog layout

Whenever I'd look for a new blog background I never understood what the difference was between a 2 and 3 column blog. The design was wider, but my wording never moved. I've been frustrated that my blog was so skinny - too much wasted space. I found this awesome website with directions on how to make your columns wider or add a 3rd column.

If you only want a wider 2 column blog, you have to follow the directions at the top first about widening the 'outer wrapper'. I skipped to the bottom and couldn't figure out why everything was squished. (Make sure you back up your original template before you start changing it. I had to revert several times and was glad I had the backup.)

Now if I could just USE my blog on a regular basis. Maybe the new layout will be more encouraging?
