Change background colour

I would very much also like to know how to do this. Could a future upgrade to the theme be a varying colour one?

Thanks

Check out the manual Shose, there is a TON of information about how to fix these problems and the steps are in depth. Use the local.css file to make any changes you want and happy coding.

Hello. I have spent two hours trying to find a 'how-to' for the OP's question. The response by cjaspencer is not helpful as there is nothing in the Danland Manual which addresses the issue (that a newbie can make sense of).
I am aware of having to create the 'local.css' etc, but can somebody please spell out in black-and-whte which code has to be changed, and the steps involved in order to change the gradient colour?
Thank-you.

I've resolved this myself by doing the following:

Change default DANLAND background gradient colour

Navigate to: \sites\all\themes\danland\images\body-bg.gif

Make a backup of the original file and use Paint.net or similar tool to change the colour gradient to your liking and then copy the edited file back into danland\images.
……………………….

Change default DANLAND menu colours

In order to change the main menu colours, the following menu images must be changed to the colours of your liking, then copied back as per above:

menu-bg.gif
menu-hover-bg.gif
menu-left-bg.gif
Menu-right-bg.gif

Cheers.
