Hi everyone,
I posted a message in theme topic, but maybe you don't read it often, so I'll write here.
My original message text is:
"mmm, can anyone tell me how to make notebook theme less wide? On owner screenshots it looks ok, but on my site is completely streched around screen (from side to side), and it look so huge.
I was looking in .css file but don't know what exactly to change to make whole theme less wide. I'm not so good with programming..
Any help would be very appreciated.

You must log in to post replies.Have you tried contacting the owner of the theme for an answer for your question?
Maybe post in the other group. They might be more active. Good luck. Sorry I don't how to fix the problems.
Maybe go to this tutorial on Elgg themes: http://www.themeswiki.org/Customizing_Elgg_Themes
It's a little out of date but might have an answer.
That tutorial on Elgg themes is pretty much useless when it comes to 1.5... It needs a rewrite.
:-)
Okay I'll do an idiots guide to changing the basic theme...
I'll add bits to it as I discover more and believe me when I say this will be really basic stuff for elgg/php beginners.
So where do I put it?
Create your own group "Changing Basic Theme for Dummies" ;-O) -- and post your topic there or as a Group page.
Okay I have started work on the 'Idiots Guide to Changing the Basic ELGG Theme' Its a work in progress so bear with me (mainly because its being written by an idiot). As the title suggests its written for those with lttle/no knowledge of PHP/ELGG...
http://community.elgg.org/pg/pages/view/43474/
Contributions are welcome from the technical types but they will be translated into plain english ;-)
wrong name.. i really wanted "elgg theming for dummies" or "the idiot's guide to the elgg universe" ;-O) or something similarly elggvigorating ;;;---)
You have way too much free time on your hands :-)
Now figure out a way of putting an HTML link into the top bar ;-)
which part of top bar ? elgg_topbar.php ?
i sleep 2 hrs ;-O)
