Replace it with: #main {margin : 0 auto;padding:10px 0px 0px 0px;clear:left;} I might add this to the official theme release since others might run into the same problem.

One question though. Is is just on my computer the left column pushes the right column out of whack and in below the left column? Jes Great looking theme! One question though. Is is just on my computer the left column pushes the right column out of whack and in below the left column?

Last question... each excerpt ends with […]. Is there any way to make this a link to the full post or replace with READ MORE> I ask this because I do a lot of usability work, and a good majority of new wordpress users don't realize they have to click on the top header Post Link to read the whole story. Some think the except is the whole story. Especially for this style where the Header Post is not underlined as a link... the user should really have somewhere to click to proceed. Again, thanks for your help! Thanks Sun Tzu, worked like a charm.

I fixed it in the version and updated the download. To fix it on your end, go to archive.php and delete line 31 or line 33 - either of these 2: <?php the_excerpt() ?> <?php the_content("» Continue reading " . the_title('"','"',false), 0); ?> If you delete the first one (excerpt), your "more" tag will cut off the post (if you use more tags in your posts). If you delete the 2nd one (content), your excerpts will show. @Jeff: Thanks for the heads up. I fixed it in the version and updated the download.

One last question: On my Categories page: http://www.tinylyons.com/category/news/ the teaser text shows up first, followed by the entire post. I just want the teaser text (like a normal wordpress presentation), not the entire post. How do I fix that? Again, I love this theme. Thanks! Thanks Sun Tzu, much appreciated. One last question:

You can grab the code from the sidebar file and place it in a text widget manually.

After sifting through a bunch of rubbish, I'm convinced this one is by far the best! I'm yet to have a good go at playing with it, but have loaded it and love it. The coding is stripped right back to the bare essentials meaning it's going to clearly be a breeze to play with. Thanks for your efforts and this offering to the world of blogging. I appreciate it.

for left aligned images:
style=”padding:0 10px 10px 0;border:0″

for right aligned images:
style=”padding: 0 0 10px 10px;border:0″
