    Ok I change the wrapperbg.gif file to a diffrent color and got the right side blue but the main page is still staying white???
    Thanks for any help..

    Don’t know how much difference it’ll make but in this chunk of code:

    #wrapper{
    width: 760px;
    margin: 0px auto;
    padding: 0px;
    text-align:left;
    font-size: 78%;
    line-height:18px;
    background: 333;
    border-left: 2px solid #fff;
    border-right: 2px solid #fff;
    }

    you don’t have the # before the numbers.

    background: 333;

    should be

    background: #333;

    Ohhhh I got it! In your header.php is where this would be I believe:

    #wrapper2 {background: #fff url(“http://sapphirestimulussystem.com/wp-content/themes/magicblue/images/wrapperbg.gif”) top right repeat-y; }

    The bold part is making the main background white. It overides the stylesheet. Just change it to what you want.
