Nutz.. .the only way you can fix that is to make a new stylesheet.

I helped someone else with this last week;   do this:

Go to Manage Styles.
Click Create Style
Put in a name for your new style and click Pick Style button.

Click Modify Style.
Choose your new style.
Go to the bottom of the page where the css is.
Erase all of the css and replace it with the following.

Look at the code and find this section and replace the background-color code with your own:


/* The main body of the entire forum. */
body
{
   background-color: #406882;
             margin: 0px;
   padding: 12px 30px 4px 30px;

}


Click Modify Style to save it...
Then choose that style and it will be fixed for you  ;)


Code: [Select]

/* Normal, standard links. */
a:link
{
color: #FFFFFF;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:visited
{
color: #476C8E;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover
{
color: #476C8E;
text-decoration: underline;
}

/* Navigation links - for the link tree. */
.nav, .nav:link, .nav:visited
{
color: #000000;
text-decoration: none;
}
a.nav:hover
{
color: #cc3333;
text-decoration: underline;
}

/* Tables should show empty cells. */
table
{
