You could experiment with ems, instead of pixels, which are a relative unit, but really you are straying into the territory of media queries and responsive design. The idea is you size type and content blocks, and even arrange them, based on the size of screen. A half way house might be to try using percentages, so that e.g. the main content was 70% and sidebar 30% and then add e.g. 10px padding to the sidebar. Good luck! But you have a loyal readership anyway, so I wouldn't worry overly.

Based on some of the comments above I have tweaked the width by 20px just to put a little space between the content and sidebar.. Hopefully this won;y cause a problem to thise who preferred the width as it was - let me know if it does,<br /><br />Comments here as the post is more than 5 fays old are moderated but still feel free to post comments,Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-28204333344384014802015-01-16T12:55:40.188+00:002015-01-16T12:55:40.188+00:00I only view on a laptop and I like the way it curr...I only view on a laptop and I like the way it currently fits my screen. My eyesight could be better but the size of font and width of what I am reading means I do not have to make any adjustments. I looked at your other blog {of which I love the header design, btw} and it isn't as easier for me to follow the longer lines, but that is my eyesight.
