In the last couple of weeks I transferred my domain name from its original registrar. I transferred the site to the S-drive. When I left the Apache type servers I lost my sites email address so I started using my old gmail address. When putting in the gmail address i had image problems with the site that took awhile to get straightened out.
I decided to use or open up a gmail apps gmail account and associate it with the domain name. have done that and now have email with the domain name after the @. Decided to adopt a blog and have put a rudimentary one in that works with the S-drive streams.
The link to the blog pg is on the horse icon in the header section, would appreciate any suggestions on where to locate the link to the blog pg or how to label the existing link. At present the only two blog entries are the test one from coffee cup and the test one from me. Guess I need to start to putting up the blogs.
How do I go about editing the appearance of the blog embed?

Thanks Rolly, I went in and tried the simple customize by adjusting the slider bar to make the embed box wider. Seems the whole outside of the box went to the 800 pixels but the text box did not get wider or did not get close to the rt side edge of the outer box. I tried to increase the size of some of the parameters in the advanced code but that did not yield any apparent changes in the width of the text box.

}

#sdrive-stream-container img {
max-width:460px;
width:expression(this.width > 459 ? '460' : 'auto');
}

Did not make the text box get any wider, Can you combine the simple slider changes with the advanced changes?

I think you can make the adjustments with the easy mode then tweak them further then allowed with Hardcore mode.

This is a screen shot of the view posts selected from the S-drive streams the texts boxes of the individual posts go out to the rt side of the containing box with a few pixels of padding space this is how it is rendering on my screen. As per attachment at the bottom of this post.
The text box on the latest post has 3 rows of text. on the preview and the actual site the text box is not as wide and has 4 rows of text. I tried to change that example of the code I changed from 460 pixels to 660 pixels. I am thinking that that should be the text box but the text box remains the same size on the site and the preview with either the 460 or 660 pixels saved to the code.
I have never used the html editor have been exclusively using the VSD so I struggle with this html editing stuff. here is a complete list of the embed box code as it stands now:

OK I went into the S-drive streams and went to customize streams and re selected the one that I was using so it defaulted back to its original theme settings. I then went to the Hardcore mode and put in the 800 pixels wide setting there and chose that and saved it. then going to the site the box was rendering 800 pixels wide with the texts boxes going out to the rt side of the containing box So, you cannot use the slider and the hardcore have to use one or the other
