Yes, you can first remove background of top, white one. Then change background.
To remove top background you need to remove some code in header.php
But I highly recommend you to use child themes so that changes won’t get lost if you update your themes.

Then copy header.php from parent theme (/wp-content/themes/preference-lite/header.php
) to your child theme directory (/wp-content/themes/child-theme/
) and then remove following:
Remove whole code on line 37, that is:
<div id="page-top-bg" style="border-top-color: <?php echo get_theme_mod( 'page_top_border', '#595A67' ); ?>; border-bottom-color: <?php echo get_theme_mod( 'tophalf_botline', '#BCBCBC' ); ?>; background-color:<?php echo get_theme_mod( 'tophalf_bg', '#ffffff' ); ?>;"></div>

Million thanks! Just one tiny remaining question. When I finally got the background as wanted, I would like to have the “black frame” around the header image transparent. Hopefully this’s possible too?! 🙂
What do you mean by “black frame”? Can you please elaborate?

This is my website (under construction of course): http://jonssonqh.com/
I’m referring to the black frame (I believe it’s called showcase) around the header image… Please let me know if I need to elaborate even more.. 🙂
Add the following code in your child themes style.css
#showcase-wrapper {
background: none !important;
padding: 0 !important;
}
#showcase-wrapper .span12 {
width: 1200px;
margin-left: 15px;
}
