Default How do I change the width of my forum?

Like the forums are a little wide, how do I make it to where it shows more of the background? Anyone who answers I will pay if needed.

No pay needed, but i think you will find it is the skin you choose.

Sorry, I didn't read your post correctly, and are you sure it is the skin? That doesn't really make sense...

Ok, Admin CP > Skins & Templates > Style sheets > Edit
When you find this code

Code:
BODY { font-family: Verdana, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; color: #000; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; background-color: #CCC; text-align: center }
Replace it with

Code:
BODY { font-family: Verdana, Tahoma, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; color: #000; margin:0px 100px 0px 100px; padding: 0px; background-color: #CCC; text-align: center }
the higher the "100s" are, the smaller it gets.
