Hey there,
I’m currently designing a wordpress theme for someone, but I can’t figure out how to change the size of the posts and sidebar. I need them both to be 650px together, to be inline with the header image. Here is the link to the style.css file: http://jonnyblackler.com/wp-content/themes/starpower/style.css
Please can you help with this.

Comment from Nick on Episode 2
Akismet is really a good spam protection plugin. I want to add two things:
1. you should activate the check-box in the Akismet option panel which says “Automatically discard spam comments on posts older than a month” – all lot of spam comments will be made on posts you made a long time ago. This will help you that you don’t have to worry about these spam comments any more.
2. you should use the WP-Spam Free plugin together with the Aksimet to block out almost 100% of spam on your blog

Hope those two little tips help some of you. Great show, keep them coming.
