    Just for clarification purposes, are you trying to reduce the area between the profile and the test of the post, or the area of the profile itself?

    Add this to your css & modify the code accordingly.
    Code:
    .postprofile{
    width: 20px !important;
    }

    .postbody{
    width:79px !important;
    }

    It's alright. Smile Go to
    Admin Panel > Display > Colors > CSS Stylesheet

    Paste what Sanket gave you in that box, adjust the numbers as you see fit, and click "Submit" below the box. Smile

    When you re-installed the default theme, your CSS was erased and replaced with the new one. Before changing themes, you should make a copy of it.
