 * I am trying to change the background color of my BUENO theme and found this thread:
   
   [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/should-be-easy-background-change?replies=8](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/should-be-easy-background-change?replies=8)
 * however, I cant find my default.css. There is only a custom.css and a style.css.
 * my adress is: [http://mit-rucksack-und-kind.de/wp/](http://mit-rucksack-und-kind.de/wp/)
 * any ideas where it might be or other ways to get rid of the background image 
   and change the color?

 * If you open style.css in your theme, there are some notes there for you regarding
   customizing your theme. I looks like you may be able to define your own styles
   and place them in custom.css instead of having to edit style.css.
 * This is what currently controls your background;
 * `body { background: #fff url(default/bodytile.jpg) repeat left top; }`
 * if you paste this into custom.css and save the changes;
 * `body { background: #fff; }`
 * The background should become white, and the dotted image should be gone. That
   should give you an example to work from that you can modify to suit your taste.
