 * I have set up a site for a local charity and the background image has transparent
   areas.
 * These transparent areas show up black for some reason, where can I change this
   option I cannot find it on the Graphene settings and I have tried adding
 * `#body, .body {background:#ffffff; background-color:#ffffff;}`
 * in the style.css and also the custom CSS option
 * I am using a child theme

 * Scratch that, I went to themes > Graphene child > colours and there was a background
   colour option.
 * Seems a bit hidden, would be nice if the option was also under Appearance > Graphene
   Options
