Generally I wouldn't recommend modifying Module.css files for most modules. The risk you run there, if you upgrade the module with a new version those changes will get lost.

What I recommend is to find the specific styles you need to modify in module.css, and override them, either in your skin.css file, or in portal.css if you use multiple skins on your site. This will make the changes specific to a portal, and not "host" wide, across all portals.

I'd also caution editing the module's CSS file except as a last resort.  In your case it's a Text/HTML module, so the skin.css, container.css and dotnetnuke.css control the majority of what you would change.  But if it's just width, my guess is a content issue more tha  anything.  Module titles too long and not set to wrap is most common.  Do you have a public version of this we can look at?

This is the one I am trying to change things in.

http://nuke.ikt.cc/

I need the width of the text on the front page to fit better. And I want to change the colors and style of the box-thing (module?) that its sitting inside. I want the borders around it gone too.

I tried to change all these in the skin.css file that I have made, but its not working, and I don't know what the different things are classed as so maybe I am calling them the wrong thing in the css-file or something?

Thanks for your help guys. :)

How do I set it to wrap? Do I make that setting in skin.css?
