Make article box bigger

Hi,

that is actually a problem that I have had for quite some time now.
How exactly do I make the article box bigger?

What I did so far is I edited the “default” Style and changed it to:
#content { margin: 0 15px; /* default: “margin: 0 155px;” */ padding-top: 30px;

So basically I changed the margin from 0 155px; to 0 15px; and that indeed makes the article box bigger but not quite how I wanted it because it just makes the text overlap into where the sidebars would be:

So how do I do that properly? How can I make the width of the box where the article is larger or broader?

Set margins back to how they were and increase the value for #container’s width instead.

Yes, I also did that but it has absolutely no effect on the page.
