Setting Forum Left Column Width?

[017]

Like the title says, I want to change the size of the left column in my forum posts. How might I go about changing this in 2.0 RC5?

Right now it's 15em, you should work here in css

themes\<theme you are using>\css\index.css

Code Select Expand

.poster
{
float: left;
width: 15em;
}
.postarea, .moderatorbar
{
margin: 0 0 0 16em;
}


Firebug can do wonders while editing templates .

What of the right column for the actual posts? I'm trying to increase the size but right now the two will collide and cause formatting problems.

So how much width do you think is appropriate for user info(left) column?

I'd say about 19em.

{
float: left;
width: 15em;
}
.postarea, .moderatorbar

margin: 0 0 0 16em;
}

Code (Replace it with) Select Expand

.poster

float: left;
width: 19em;

.postarea, .moderatorbar
{
margin: 0 0 0 19em;
}
