How to alter the length of a sidebar?

[elsewhence]

Hello everyone, I hope it's okay to ask what's probably a very basic question to people more knowledgable than myself! I currently have my journal set to a very gently customised version ofmomijizukamori's Starry Sky theme, with two columns with the sidebar on the right (I guess you could look at it yourself if you want....) Basically the only change I've made using CSS is to remove the subtitle. What bothers me is this: the sidebar currently extends all the way to the bottom of the page and that bold empty bar against the starry background doesn't really look all that great. I would prefer it if the black ended right under the last displayed module. Is there some simple way to do this using CSS?

Thanks for reading and (if you do) responding!

Oh, I love how that looks with that background!

Anyway, adding

.column-right #content {
    border-color: transparent;
}

to your custom CSS should do it!

Haha, did I summon you by mentioning your username (it's just a habit to make them links, feels rude not to) or is that just a coincidence? Because if so, it's an amusing one! In either case, I just tried your fix and it looks so much better now, thank you!

yeah, it's a nice background, isn't it? I made it myself, feel free to grab it if you like. No need to credit, I think it's too generic to merit that. :)

Hah, maybe spiritually, but in reality I'm one of the main go-to people for styles stuff these days, so I'm subscribed to new post notifications on this comm ;) Glad I could help!

Haha, close enough for me. Thanks for making such a nice theme in the first place, too! I guess people all have different talents and ideally help each other out with whatever we can, but we should never just take any of that for granted. I'm grateful people like you make nice themes. :)
