   Must have been asked a million times, cannot find answer in Forum.
   How do I change the Posting page background color in 2010?
   Changing the Backround of 2010 Theme is listed and simple.
   I assume the script is a #FFFFFF number in Style.css or some such File.
   Working out (getting at Color Experiment) the # color code is easy - but what file in the Theme Folder?
   How do I change the page background color in 2010?
   Code example cut-and-past please?

   there is no direct background color definition for the 'Posting page';

   the white background is more generally defined in style.css for #wrapper:

   #wrapper {
   	background: #fff;
   	margin-top: 20px;
   	padding: 0 20px;
   }

   you can try and change the color code there, and see if the result is what you wanted.

   the more individual post area has this css class:

   .hentry {
   	margin: 0 0 48px 0;
   }

   you could try to add a background color to this; like the following:

   .hentry {
   	margin: 0 0 48px 0;
   background: #fff;
   }

   color codes, for instance:

   Ahh Thanks!

   A problem is that, in the illustration for 2010 Theme, they have the Post background in Blue! So I wondered.
   I haven't been to that Wiki/Web_colors yet but I notice you used only 3 characters indicating code [ #fff; ]
   I noticed in Style.css last night, some were 3 and some were 4 digit.
   I'll look for an explanation at the Link.
   Many Thanks for the promt reply.
