Have you tired just setting it to "width:100%"?

You need to set the images in your gallery to width: 100% or max-width of whatever is the maximum width you want the images to be. Either method the images will shrink as the screen shrinks. Is the images in the list items in your gallery? If so...

            gallery li img {
                width: 100%;
             }
            gallery li img {
                max-width: 100%;
            }

You have a typo in one of your CSS selectors:

#wapper {

Should be:

#wrapper {
