Hi Takeshi,

Thanks very much, that worked.  When I set that to 1200 the page on 
github.io is wider (I think it is actually 1170 not 1200).  However, if I 
try to further increase the body_max_width to 1600 it does not get any 
wider, it is still 1170.  Is there some other setting that affects that?

Thanks,
Mark
