Hi everyone.
I just started a forum and I am curious about all the wasted space on the left and right sides of the screen. I have clicked on the links that some people have put in their questions and noticed their forums go across the entire screen. Whenever people post pictures, they get cut off due to the large margins. How do I fix this?

here is a link to my forum:

here is what I would like it to look like:

Thanks for any help you can provide!

Your banner is too wide for the background picture.

Kilsek, I'm not sure what you mean? The image behind the banner is part of the theme, I didn't make it. I just kept resizing the banner until it was centered on it.

Does it not look like it fits to you? I have opened the forum in both firefox and IE and it looks perfectly centered. And its not so much the banner I am concerned with. Its the entire forum. There are just such wide gaps going down each side of the screen. I wish everything went across the whole screen. I guess its just the particular theme I chose
