[ZWeb] right hand margin

May I suggest a slightly wider right hand margin for the news and products
column.

The current 1-2 pixels is different to the left hand column and gives the
appearance that stuff is running off the right hand edge of the page. An
extra few pixels of whitespace will add a little more balance...

That said - it is looking good and I can't wait to see it all populated with
content.

Cheers,

Mark F
