FINALLY figured it out ... even though I had changed the following css page correctly, the next set of code in the index.php was over-riding the new width setting in the css file. These are the 2 changes I had to make to
change the width for my logo.
lst change made in: ...templates/coolness/css/template_css.css
was to replace 180px with 400px (see text in blue):
/* Logo formatting:
changed width from 180px to 400px */
#logo { float:left; width:
400px; background: url(/../images/head_foot.png) no-repeat 0px -82px; }
#logo a {text-decoration:none; color:#636363;}
#logo h1 {margin:0px; padding:0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:32px; line-height:100%; font-weight:500; display:block; padding:10px 0 0 20px; }
#logo h1 STRONG { color: #636363; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold; }
#logo h1 a STRONG { color: #636363; }
#slogan h2 { margin:0px; padding:0px; height:49px; line-height:49px; color:#636363; text-align:right; font-style: italic; font-size:18px; font-weight:500; padding-right: 20px; }
2nd change was made in: ...templates/coolness/index.php
the following line of code was overriding the width setting above since it is defaulting to the current value of the left column which is 180.
Before change (code in blue was replaced with code in green in code after change:
#logo { background:url("<?php echo $imagePath; ?>") no-repeat 5px 5px; width:
<?php echo $leftcol_width; ?>px; }
<?php } ?>
after change:
#logo { background:url("<?php echo $imagePath; ?>") no-repeat 5px 5px; width:
400px; }
<?php } ?>

now I just need to make the background of the image transparent
