I love the "Simple" template. It has everything I want. Except the background. I need that black. Has anyone already developed a black version of the Simple template? Or.......can someone tell me how to do it myself? I have changed it to not switch from light to dark. it is dark. But not jet black as I prefer.

Thanks in advance guys.

All you have to do is edit the dark.css template. Change this
body {
background-color:#666;


to this

body {
background-color:#000;


I would recommend also making the navigation bar darker as well. From this:
#navigation {
background:#333333;
to
#navigation {
background:#666;

Edit: Dakwegmo beat me to it. But there is still some basic info bellow.

You need to edit the CSS file.

Once you have the CSS file open, look for,

background-color:#666;

change #666; to #000;

That will change the background color to black.

Everywhere you see a # followed by a 3 or 6 digit number, is a color code.

You change the value after the # to change the color.

You can go here for a nice list of available colors to use, http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_colors.asp
