    Hello! I am using the Tomodachi theme and LOVE it - thank you so much for giving this to us for free.
    I am trying to modify it to fit my needs for a blog. I am trying to insert Google Adsense ads.

    I would like to insert a vertical column of ads down the right hand side of the blog posting. However, as not to squish the actual blog posting, I would like the ads to be inserted in between the posting and the sidebar.

    As I can see the sidebar is very dependant on a lot of pieces, I would rather see if I can "shift" the entire heading (navigation bar) and blog posting to the left.

    So far I have found '#wrap' and widened it to 1000 pixels instead of 930. It has screwed up other placements, though.

    Is this possible? Or would I throw *everything* off?
    You can see what I mean from here, this is a dummy post I created: link

    Do you have any suggestions? Or am I out of luck?
    Thanks,
    Jess :-)

    That looks great! I (sort of) figured it out.

    Is that a new version of Tomodachi? I LOVE the "popular, videos, images" links on the home page and that doesn't appear to be on the version I downloaded.
    Thanks,
    Jess

    That's actually the CSS template version. When I integrated it into WordPress I decided to cut that part out of the free release.

    Hi Leland!! I am all done with my site, I just wanted to show it to you, I think it came out great and I am excited. Thank you SO much for providing these templates to us for free... I actually really enjoyed customizing it and playing around with all the .css files, and making my own PHP "if" statements. It was nice to have a project again. Anyway, the site I created was made for busy moms, and I *am* a busy mom, so there's no way I could have done this from scratch.
    Here is the finished product, enjoy:
