I don't want to narrow my site, I want to narrow the posts. Like this post I'm writing in right now. This area here is almost twice the width of a novel page and I think it is easier to read posts that are at least close to the width of a book page. Or maybe have all the posts in two columns? That might work for very long posts. I'd have to see it to see if it looks good or not.
How do I narrow or put margins in the posts and replies on my site?
Thank you

You can achieve that in decreasing the width of the CSS class .post_body in global.css, for example:

.post_body {
...
width: 60%;
margin-left: 10%; /* optional indent to the left*/
}

To include the title bar (time, edit, and permalink) use class .post_content instead.
