Issues designing a new page

[Sunstroke]

Hi there 

Im very new at designing my own pages in Magento i bought a theme of themforest but i would like to use some of the elements on the home page on my About Us page.

I have looked on the net but everything is a little greek. 

The home page has different sections white and light grey but they are full width i have tried to add the code onto the page but the actual container does not go full width i have tried the following code but its as if there is still another 2 tables im not jumping over.

<table style="background-color: #ced1d4; ; width: 100%;" border="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>

This is my result

Can i create a page this way or do i have to make a whole new css controller and and

Hi @Sunstroke,

As you said, your content is being placed into one container. You should check the css definition for that container first.

If yor theme is boxed you, probably, will need to change the container from boxed to liquid.
