www.igamingi.co.uk if u look its really skinny, this website seems a lot wider.

Edit: Im using a 1920 x 1080 monitor, on the laptop it looks fine, but i dont get why this website gets bigger when you increase the res.

If it will not change in your admin control panel for your theme, then look in your theme's css file.
./Themes/yourtheme/css/index.css
look for code that looks similar to this-
body
{
background: #EFEEE7 url(../images/theme/backdrop.png) repeat-x;
font: 78%/130% verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 15px 5%;
}
Experiment with the padding to get your desired width

I cant find it, thers to many codes what look the same  :-\

Heres my .php if u dont mind helping me, or anyone else who does  :)

Referring to my first post- You need to look in index.css, not index.template.php
./Themes/yourtheme/css/index.css
find that file and attach it.  :)

Woops sorry i was, i just uploaded the wrong file my bad  ???

Ok. try this one. You may need to adjust it again. Save a copy of your original first.
Your original file has the wrapper set at 990 px
I changed it to 100%, but that may be too much. The code is on line 45 if you want to adjust the percentage to get what you want.

43..wrapper
44.{
45. width: 100%;
46. margin: 0 auto;
47.}

JORD4N, did busterone's index.css work? Looking at the file, you should experience no problems with it.... just let us know if its all good. :)
