 * Hey,
    I want to add a background just like the one found at [http://www.hypebeast.com](http://www.hypebeast.com).
   Basically there is a grey background but it starts away from the posts, so the
   posts exist in a white background while the edges of the page are grey.
 * I know i need to adjust the container code in my style.css, but I cant figure
   this out.
 *     ```
       /* container */
       #container {
       	margin-bottom:15px;
       }
   
       #top-container {
       	background:transparent url(images/slider-bg.png) no-repeat 0 0;
       	height:212px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Any help would be much appreciated!

       color:#000000;
       font:14px Arial,Verdana,Tahoma;
       }
       .wrapper {
       background:#fff;
       margin:0 auto;
       width:1050px;
