If you are using Firefox I would recommend to install the Firebug extension. With this extension you will be able to find the responsible code in the CSS-files pretty easy.
To edit a CSS-file you can use any text editor (e.g. Windows Text Editor).
For your special case there should be a 702px width in the default.css file. Play around with it and adjust the background gif to fit your needs.

Hi, you need to check the default.css in the theme indeed. There are however multiple widths you have to adjust. The container holds the total width, then there is the header, a main part etc. They all have to be adjusted with the extra width you want.
How much extra width do you want for the theme? It is now indeed 702px as specified in default.css. If you say how much wider you want to go it is probalby relatively easy to give you a new default.css for the theme with these widths.

Hi Manu,
The Firebug suggestion by Sascha is a great idea. I was able to open the theme using Firebug and look at the CSS. Looking at the CSS, The total container is 626 px, the main block is 415 pixels. You would need to modify the part of the CSS and probably others to get what you want. You can find the CSS in the style folder of the theme. Try playing with the values until you get what you want.
