 * I’m new to wordpress, and I can’t seem to figure out how to change the background
   on this theme. I have admin privileges, and I have access to the “customize” 
   section on the toolbar. However, when I click on the tab for background image,
   it says that there is no background image selected. However, the page loads with
   a wood grain background. Another thing to note is the wood grain background image
   that loads doesn’t appear in my “media files”.
 * Anybody have an idea what’s going on here? I’d appreciate any help you could 
   provide. Thanks!
