a newbie here. need help on customizing my zen cart front

:clap:hi!

i've been tinkering my zen cart this night (Philippine time) and though i got very little knowledge i manage to create one..

i just need help on how to make the front of my zen cart better..

http://e-baguiocity.com/osCommerce/

if you click the (practiced listing i've done)

you will see this

http://e-baguiocity.com/osCommerce/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_6&products_id=2

:shocking:the box of my front is to narrow to contain the whole texts and images i've uploaded.

Edit the width in your stylesheet (/includes/templates/classic//css/stylesheet.css).

Find this/*wrappers - page or section containers*/ #mainWrapper { background-color: #ffffff; text-align: left; width: 750px; vertical-align: top; border: 1px solid #9a9a9a; }and change to whatever px or percentage width you want:```
/wrappers - page or section containers/
#mainWrapper {
background-color: #ffffff;
text-align: left;
width: 90%;
vertical-align: top;
border: 1px solid #9a9a9a;
}

You should also create a custom template folder to keep your version in. See the FAQ/tutorials.

You need to edit the files that are on your server, you can't edit them from the admin.

Log in to your hosting account and locate the file mentioned above and then download a copy of it. Edit the file and upload it again to the same folder.

And I had a typo in there - it should be /includes/templates/classic/css/stylesheet.css (no double slashes /).
