   Hi,

   I have been researching for days why my background color in sidebar won't change. I have edited all the colors related to the .sidebar styles but still nothing.

   Is it possible that because I am using the sidebar as a widget...it's preventing me from make color change?

   You don't have a background color for #sidebar in your css, so add this to #sidebar (choose your own color of course):

   background: #003366;

   BTW, .sidebar is a class (which you don't have) and #sidebar is an id (what your theme uses).

   I may have to experiment without the "sidebar widget" and see what happens then.

   Grrrr, thanks for your input!

   P.S. I hear ya on the class vs id. i meant to put #
