how do I add extra columns to the portal page?

by editing the portal template

what code do I use for new columns

<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" width="100%">
<tr>
<td class="tborder">
<table border="0" cellspacing="$theme[borderwidth]" cellpadding="$theme[tablespace]" width="100%">
<tr>
<td class="thead"><strong>[b]Box header goes here[/b]</strong></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="trow1" align="center">
<span class="smalltext">
[b]You content goes here[/b]
</span>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td></tr></table>
<br />

and stick that wherever you want it in the portal template (admin cp > templates > modify/delete > *template set expand* > Portal Templates expand > portal)

Thanks for this code K776!

Another question though - How do I get the space between them reduced to match the other side?

I want my middle section (welcome message) closer to the left section (welcome box)

Here is a screen shot of what I mean. It's highlighted in green.
