    I changed it from: background: #222;
    to: background: #00e;

    It did not appear to make any difference.
    It now looks as follows:

    body {
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    color: #111;
    text-align:center;
    font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size: 100.1%;
    background: #00f;
    }

    Thanks.

    Thanks, but I am not having any luck finding the right place to change it. I looked in the header.php file also. I don’t find a place where the color is set to #777 that appears to be the right place.

    Here is the header file: Maybe you can tell me where to find it?? Thanks!

    Can you take a look at https://www.youryoungactor.com to see what I am trying to change? It is the gray color that has no text on top of it, not actually the part of the blog where text appears — just the gray outside that I am trying to change. Thanks.

    Got the menu color changed. That worked great. Thanks!

    Not so lucky with the outside gray. Did not find background-color: #777777 or anything like that in the file.

    The beginning of the file looks like this:
    /*
    Theme Name: magicblue
    Theme URI: https://www.blogchemistry.com/2008/09/13/free-wordpress-theme-magicblue/
    Description: 2 column, with RHS widget sidebar
    Version: 1.2
    Tags: fixed width, two columns, widget ready, white, blue
    Author: BlogChemistry
    Author URI: https://www.blogchemistry.com/
    */

    body {
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    color: #111;
    text-align:center;
    font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size: 100.1%;
    background: #222;
    }

    I tried changing the #222 to #00A and #0000AA but could not see any effect. I changed it to background-color: #00A and #0000AA and it had no effect either.

    Is there another place it could be?

    Thanks!
