reduce the width of the lefthand column in posts

[strewth78]

this is the column where the avatars sit alongside each post in a thread.
Ive reduced the max size of the avatar, but this doesnt then reduce the width of this column
how can i do this?

thanks

Go to your style sheet (Admin Area > Themes > Colors & Styles > Style Sheet) and search for the following line: (roughly line 980)


.posts .post .left-panel { width: 172px; vertical-align: top; }

Change the width here to change the amount of space the left column has.

If you want to change the amount of space the mini-profile takes up, find the following line: (roughly line 1143)

.mini-profile { color: @mini_text_color; font: @mini_text_font; background: @mini_background; border: @mini_border; .rounded-corners(@mini_border_radius); text-align: @mini_text_align; overflow: hidden; padding: 13px 10px; width: 150px; }

and change the width here as well.

"left-panel"!!!

...thanks.
Only, now my Avatar isnt centered.
The line directly under the first one you posted offers a padding-left for the content but not the left-panel, so I cant see where I can reduce the padding to the avatar.
Any ideas? thanks again.

If I understand what you're talking about, try changing the padding from the second code block I posted.
