What would really help us help you, is a forum url, or at least, a screenshot to see exactly what you mean.
I know it seems obvious to you, but to us, people not on your site, we have no clue.

On the left and right sides Its a white space. Is there a way to make the width bigger on everything so the whole website expands?

I think he means the width of the forum.. Admin/ Themes/ Advanced Styles/ Visual Editor/ Forum/ Width

Do what blueshead said.
Set the width to a percentage rather than a pixel, so set it to about 92% for example. It's better that way for all browsers so it fits, and if anyone uses smaller, it wont make them scroll left and right.

Good thought Stinky666.. Just a Q.. How would I convert px to % for proboards?  I'm set at 850px and would like to convert.  I didn't even think about the Browser problem.. d'uh..

Personally, I would experiment. If it helps, the border background on this forum of mine is 94%

Why should I experiment.. If I can sit here and drink beer and eat BBQ while someone else does the work? 

Edit... 73% did the trick..  Opens beer, congratulates self..

Another quick question, sorry,

Is there a way to edit the registration process? add more questions or even create a custom registration process? I wanna be able to ask members questions and all before joining, like age and stuff

Hello, you can not, however. You can go to Forum settings, and at the bottom, restrict registration. Now, go to "Members" area in the admin panel, and click on Pending Registrations. There, you are able to turn on the comment box, and in that big blank, just ask them what to enter. You will see this once someone registers, and its pending.
