Nice Template - quick question... I want to change the color from white to something else on the side "panels" /margin areas/borders on this page... when I go into the template.css to change the background in some of the wrappers or gkpage, etc... it changes the background for the entire page... ie. where the text is too... I want just the left and right "margins" to be something other than white... but all the module positions, content area, etc. to remain white... it looks like the coding doesnt have a separate wrapper for that... any ideas? thanks

Its not an issue... just look at your demo... the sides... the white areas in the background... like on any of your demo pages... attached is what I am talking about... I shaded them in black... I would like the black areas... ie. the background sides to be a specific color... I tried to change the CSS and the color was changed for the entire page... ie. even the content area.

Hi

In this case I think You should use an image with only sides colored and display it under Your site or add a new layer and close the whole site with it. Let say this layer cover only 1000px with white background and the previous background color will be visible on sides than.

that was what my default solution was going to be as it doesnt look like they made an enclosed wrapper to separate the sides from everything else.

Hi

You can add this wrapper Yourself in /layouts/default.php file.
