Balance Theme – Background color just for header and outside content area?

[placeshifter]

Hi,

I'd like to have a tan background color for the header and non-content areas to the left and right as seen here:

How could I do this with the Balance Theme?  Thank you.

You need to set the body background color to your required tan colour on line 180 of style.css:
body {
background-color: #fff;
}

Then set the background color of #inner to white around line 497 in style.css:

#inner {
margin: 40px auto 0;
overflow: hidden;
width: 960px;
background-color:#fff;
}
