Creating multiple field rows in custom object

Hi, I am new to the developer world and am currently an SFDC admininstrator.  We need to create a custom object in salesforce however our current settings only allow us to have a maximum of two fields side by side.  The custom object we need requires 8+ fields side by side.  Would anyone have code or direction on how I could go about creating a custom object to allow 8+ columns appear in a custom object?  

 

 

Thank you!

In case you need 8 place holders or fields , you need to just create 8 fields but if your specific requirement is to have 8 columns side-by-side then its cant be done using the standard layout and you need to achieve it using a VF page.

VisualForce pages.
You can create a table and put each of the fields in different columns side by side.

The extra columns are for a custom page built for special pricing of products.
