Xanga themes
These Xanga themes are getting to be annoying. I see all these white empty spaces but I can't make the text area go any wider. Every theme that I've tried is like that. Is it just a restriction within theme? I can't even figure out how to have a simple layout anymore. I like dark backgrounds with a lighter text so that it's easier on the eyes. The pictures also tend to pop out a bit more.
With these themes, I can't even add a large picture. Everything has to be small. Oh well... I'm sure there are better things in life to worry about.
Back to my reports ....

I like the older themes better. I was going to look at something new for my site but that will have to wait. I am going to bed - alone
.
@Fatcat723 - I like the older layouts too. If the new themes were just wider, I could live with it.
Why don't you make your own theme?
I think it's the other way around.. dark text over light background is good for the eyes, not light text over dark background... =/
your pictures actually show up better justified in your new themes, it always used to be messed up before (for me at least)
You have to tweak the theme using the editor but I agree its a pain in the butt... If I get a chance, I'll take a look at the editor and try to point you in the right direction.
@Dezinerdreams - let's just say I'm technically challenged.
@tomatoboi - hmm... I've always had problems with my pictures. It never messed it up before but now it takes so long to align them.
@brooklyn2028 - thank you. I tried the editor too (width). Maybe I have to sacrifice some chickens or goats.
I've stuck with the old format for exactly that reason. At least you're using a good-sized type face. Some bloggers combine the skinny column with even skinnier print.
@jojobaDESIGNS - I've been playing around with different fonts and size. I don't want people to start squinting when they read. I also like a clean background. Some folks have a very cluttered background with small letters. My poor eyes can't handle it.
@ElusiveWords - Same here! I like to be able to read clearly without fighting my way through a busy background. I like your format.
I had to play around with mine a lot to make it work. You can try it if you want.
