Basic Layout Concepts
There are three basic concepts to layouts: Fixed width, Fluid and Elastic.
Fixed-width is where the layouts will not change size as the user changes the window we see the layout in. Fluid allows for better control on larger monitors or screens, however the coder gives up exact control of the layout. Exact layouts are similart to fluid, hard to manage. Complex thoughout the duration of the work.

When one adds a large image without specific code and forces that content to smosh together in a space, it has the chance to also force the columns to exceed layout width.
