How do i Make the layout fullscreen width !!

I am using Zen Cart 1.3.8a and i am using the standard Classic theme that comes with a fresh install. I need to know a way to make the page layout full screen so it does not have the extra sides.like to stretch the white area all teh way to the side of the screen so there is no " Black boxes " on the sides. Here is a idea of what i want to do

First, don't use the 'classic' template.

Then, in your stylesheet, look for #mainWrapper and change the width from 750px to 100%. Personally, I don't care much for 100% sites, so you might also try changing the width from 750px to, say, 950px.

The 'classic' folders will be overwritten when you upgrade to the next version, and your changes will be lost. Create your 'custom' template and folders as described in the links I posted, and when you upgrade, your site will still look the same.
