Just to confirm:
To have a full width page, I have two choices:
1) Create a new page template and call a new div that I put in either the existing css file, or create a new one and import it.
Is this correct?
If I want to get fancy and use it for some posts, I need to move the subscribe feed out of the sidebar.
Besides menu capabilities, every theme needs a full width template. It's the largest structural issue I see with Carrington. It should come with such out of the box.
