I attached a pic of my desktop and my Conky code to this post.

How would I go about making Conky a bit thinner?
I copied most of that code from someone else, and I changed it a bit to suit my needs/use, but on my 15" laptop, it takes up a bit more room than I'd like.

Thanks!!

Line 13 -- you need to change the value of maximum_width. Just lower it and play around with it until you find something that works for you. Every time you change the .conkyrc file you will need to kill the current conky process and start it again though. Very simple.

Thank you!
I didn't bother to look over the code; I would've noticed that if I had.
