FTLOB tutorial - how to widen your blog

well hello beautiful faces!  hope you all are having a wonderful day. we thought it was a good time to share another simple tutorial with you all.  today we're sharing with you how to widen your blog beyond 1,000 pixels.

 

you will want to start by clicking on the "design" section listed on your dasboard

 next select the "edit HTML" option

 

before making any coding changes to your blog, it is always a good idea to download a full template of your design to your computer first. this way, if something goes wrong you have a back up of your original design.

once you are done downloading your template, you will need to go into the coding and find the wording above.  you can hit control F to specify wording to be found.  type template-skin and it will bring you to this section!

now you will want to find value= on the first line of code.  here you will see the pixel width.  in this example the value is already set to 1000.  you can change this number to whatever you would like.  typically 1100px or 1200px gives you the perfect amount of extra space!

we hope this tutorial was helpful!  we would like to offer more of these for you that are interested.  please leave a message in the comments below if there is something in particular that you would like us to do a tutorial on!

have a beautiful day!
