First of all, thanks for your work and your excellent templates ;)
Then I had some questions:

1) In the Template Parameters Switch Layout is ON.
After I did that, I would change the width of columns, how can I do that?
I mean the left column, the central content and the right column.

2) Can I change the space between the two articles on the home page? I wish there was a bit more space. (look the image attached)

3) I tried using icons ( PNG 16px X 16px) on a menu in position USER3, but if I select "Menu Image Alignment: Left" I have this result:
Image
The icons are too distant from the link. How can I fix it?

In the "Module Parameters of Menu", if I select in "Menu Image Alignment: Right" the space between icons and text is ok:

Thank you for your help.
Bye


PS
I use the following versions:
Joomla! v1.5.15 (new installation. No Modules/Extensions, only Joomla)
JoomlaPraise 1.5 Contest Entry 1.5.2
I tested the Template with Firefox v3.5.6 and Opera v10.10

Hi,
I highly suggest watching our quick tutorials on using Firebug for Firefox to help you understand and edit Joomla template css
http://vimeo.com/album/134016

1. Edit /templates/jp_joomlapraise_j1.5/css/template.css and change the widths of #mainbody & #sidebar2 (they must equal 99% together)
and then edit the widths of #content & #sidebar (they must equal 99% together)
This will make more sense if you inspect the page with Firebug

2. Edit /templates/jp_joomlapraise_j1.5/css/template.css and add this code to the bottom
Code:
.column_separator{padding-left:5px;}


3. If you're going to use menu images, edit /templates/jp_joomlapraise_j1.5/css/theme1.css
and change
Code:
#navigation a {
color: #3477CF;
text-decoration: none;
margin-left: 20px;
}

to
Code:
#navigation a {
color: #3477CF;
text-decoration: none;
margin-left: 5px;
margin-right:15px;
}
