A little problem with changing size of left and right columns

I changed the sizes in admin to 15%. The sizes technically change but there is a big gap between them and the sides: http://secrettrance.net/beloveddoll/
I want the actual boxes to change size, not the space.

You will want to also look in the CSS. You can control basically anything about the site (looks anyway) from there. Maybe take a look at the margins for those columns as well.

I looked in the css but did not see anything that would contribute to the columns` width sizes.

You may want to also look at the center column. Hope that helps. I couldn't remember off the top of my head but will take a closer look in a sec.

Re: A little problem with changing size of left and right columns

Ive done a search through and am not finding anything. Ive done crtl+f on px on the entire document and only found the sizes on the borders around the column boxes but none on the columns themselves. I looked at the center column and found nothing there either.

Re: A little problem with changing size of left and right columns

Solution:
The size has to be done in TWO places in order for the column width changes to take place. Very odd thing to do for Zen.

The more I mess with this, the more complicated and difficult it is to customize the look.
