Are you trying to change the body background where you have an image? No matter what you are wanting to do you can use the stylesheet to do this

Yes, the body background. I’m slightly familiar with css, but are there specific directions somewhere that I can go by?
Modify the wrapper tab in style.css at line 171
#wrapper {
background
}
This will change the white background
Line 54
is the body background
right now it is set to an image and you can change the to a hex color value as well
body {
background-attachment: fixed;
background-image: url("http://selenawolff.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/green-writing4.jpg");
background-position: left top;
background-repeat: repeat;
}
This is your current css for the body.
if you are wanting to change the background to a color you need to find the color you want and get the hex value that looks like #000000. Do a google search for the hex of a color you want.
Example; the code above needs to be change to the following if you want to change the background to a light gray.
body {
background:#CCCCCC;
}

I want to change the white background to a black background (not the image but the main text area.) I tried the wrapper, changing the hex color, but it didn’t change when I viewed it.
Line 171
#wrapper {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #FFFFFF;
margin-top: 20px;
padding: 0 20px;
}
needs to be changed to
#wrapper {
background: #000000;
margin-top: 20px;
padding: 0 20px;
}
Make sure when you view the website again you refresh with the refresh button.
