Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 1,148 Points#wrapper not centering excess margin/padding on the right
cant for the life of me seem to figure this out i've changed a lot but reverted back to the original code as shown in projector.
it started with my header not stretching across the screen. I fixed that by changing the 940px to a larger number under the #wrapper in css.
that worked but only for the header.
i switched it back to 940 because im still having issues with there being more space on the right side than the left.
My spacing on the contact sheet seems to be different than the example. less padding/margin is shown on mine

One of the reasons I am loving getting into this is because when I think all is hopeless I finally break down and ask a question that I doubt anyone will ever answer. and sure enough within 30 min its solved. I love the community here!
Thank you so much for taking the time to do this!
