Decreasing space between sideboxes?

[KismetDesign]

On each side of my pages, I'd like to find a way to decrease the amount of space between the sideboxes & the horizontal rules that are currently there.

A sampe page is here

Can anyone think of something creative to do this?

Thanks,

KD

Decrease what space?
Vertical?
Horizontal?

The "rules" are the bottom borders of the boxes. These rules in stylesheet_boxes.css will affect them:

#column_right .box_body {margin:0; color:#E9E9E9; padding:12px 0 23px 7px; margin:0 0 20px 0; border-bottom:1px solid #F0EEDC;}

.box_body {margin:0; color:#E9E9E9; padding:12px 0 23px 5px; margin:0 0 27px 0; border-bottom:1px solid #F0EEDC;}

Adjust padding and margin for spacing.

Thank you, got it!

I also want to remove the vertical space between sideboxes. I'd like them to bump right against each other with no space between.

I do not find a file called stylesheet_boxes.css. I've looked in template_default and classic. I'm using a new install of v. 1.3.9f, customizing as I go.

I've also been looking for a wrapper that would hold all the sideboxes. Then I could use a background color for all and I wouldn't need to remove the vertical space, but it seems the boxes are not wrapped?

Here is my page.

After spending the morning looking, I found where to make the sidebox container background color. #navColumnOne, #navColumnTwo.

I didn't think this was it because I couldn't get my background image to show up there so I left it thinking it was the wrong place.

Stylesheet_boxes.css is a non-standard, template-specific file. Most templates will not have that, or #column_right or .box_body, but the basic stylesheet.css or possibly other files will control the aspects covered by it.
