So this is a great working playground for building up my own theme... so thank you.

Question however, i see that with a layout i can adjust the column position and width (to preset defaults). However, how do i change the width of the left & right column individually? I have tried changing:

/* Target a specific sidebar or its sidebar-inner. */
#sidebar-left {
width: 330 px;}
#sidebar-left .inner {
width: 330 px;}

#sidebar-right {
width: 221 px;}
#sidebar-right .inner {
width: 221 px;}

which has no effect. It appears that there is a lot more to adjusting this. Any help?

Specifically, things appear to be superseded (like width and margins) by the layout css

What you do is copy the relevant layout from layout.css to your genesis_SUBTHEME.css file and make the changes there.

You are using genesis_3 so just copy/paste all the code from layout.css for #genesis_3 to your subtheme and make changes.

You can use pixels but I would advise to stick with ems (there is a link to a "pixels to ems" calculator in layout.css comments), or else just divide the number of pixels by 12, such as 330/12 = 27.5em
