    It looks like you've turned off the left sidebox column, so the center content moves to the left.

    Try adding this to your stylesheet:

    #navColumnCenter {margin-left:7em;}

    Or you can increase its' width in your stylesheet.css file

    Find and adjust as desired

    Code:
    #mainWrapper {
    	background-color: #ffffff;
    	margin:0 auto;
    	width: 960px;
    	}

    Thank you, I have tried both these methods, the first made no change, the second adjusts the with of the template.
    I need the CENTERBOX width changed.

    My suggestion works fine for me on your site in Web Developer when I add it to the bottom of stylesheet.css.

    There is no direct setting for the "center box"

    This is contained within the mainwrapper div and is the result what it is set to minus the left & or right column width

    So if you increase the mainwrapper width the center benefits from the additional px and becomes wider

    You can add:

    Code:
    #navColumnCenter{width:80%;margin-left:15px;}
    to the bottom of your stylesheet.css.

    Also, your background looks strange. I would recommend taking out the :

    Code:
     no-repeat  top left #000
    from the body selector.

    Thanks,

    Anne

    Gonna ask a stupid question, I cant get an image behind the text in the centerbox. As a back ground.

    Any thoughts?

    What element are you applying the background-image to in your stylesheet?
