I cannot figure out how to widen my side bars. I currently use a theme that has 3 colums. A side bar on the left and a side bar on the right with the main conent in the middle. The info I put in the side bars is rather small and I would like to widen the side bars which would make pictures or video I put in the side bar larger. When I try to widen the side bars the right side bar wraps underneath the main column and messes up the entire theme. Here is my current HTML.
/*
Theme Name: TAKTEEK01
Version: 1.4.4
Description: TAKTEEK01 is a dark-colored theme that features plain text as the main banner. The text can easily be changed in the theme options. You also have the option to use an image as the main banner or both.
