    you can disable the right column. for the whole site or per page in the templates/your-template/common/tpl_main_page.php
    you can use the admin to switch the right boxes to the left column.

    You can change the layout of your product page using CSS and template/your-template/templates/tpl_product_info_display.php
    You can also look into the free download section their are different add ons for different layouts you might find something you like

    Looks ok with maybe one or two tweaks.

    Personally i'd do one of two things, reduce the size of your image slightly (not much) or simply widen the page.

    It looks like you have standard width which i think is 700 px wide, i always prefer about 950 wide, this will widen your center column.

    Remeber you can have the product image as big as you like with the 'click for larger image'.

    Looking good so far nice and clean.........................

    If that's all your going to have in the right column, I would just get rid of it and put those boxes in the left. But, I would also widen it, the layout is very skinny. If you widen it and get rid of the right column, the product listing page will be shorter which means more product info is seen right away, without having to scroll down the page. You could make the product image in the listing a tad bit smaller.

    You might want to take a look at this mod, it places your additional images under the main image with your product description, etc. to the right. I think this would work for you.

    Cool pens :)

    Thanks very much for the advice. For starters I think I will increase the width to 950px. I checked in Analytics and the percentage of users with screen resolutions less than 950px is only about 3%.

    I'll look into the mod recommended. It sounds good. Between that and the possibility of eliminating the right hand column, I think I will improve the look and feel of the site.

    Thanks again, I'll keep you posted when I get it done
