If you just want to change the size of the images, you can do that when you insert the image -- under size:
-
> Settings > Media

I know I can change the actual image size by editing the photos, but then they are smaller than the width of my text which I don't like the look of. Is there a way to make the left/right margins larger so that it shrinks the width of my post. Also, I don't want to change the width of sidebar that displays the widgets, I'd like that to stay as is.

Try this -- adjust the width and the margin according to what you want it to look like:
<br /> .home #content {<br /> width: 780px;<br /> margin-left: 30px;<br /> }<br />
This will only change it on your home page -- is that what you want? -
I just tried what you suggested and it did make the width of my post smaller, which is what I want. But then it created a large space between my post and my sidebar which I don't like the look of. I guess what I want is to be able to make the side margins wider so the width of my content gets smaller....am I kind of wishing for something that's not possible? I have no idea what I'm doing so I really appreciate the help!!

Did you adjust the left margin as suggested -- increasing that margin shifts the section to the right.
-
Give this a try:
.content article { margin-left: 50px; margin-right: 50px; }Adjust the 50px values as necessary.

Note that the CSS I just posted was for the Quintus theme, which is the current theme on your blog.
