Background behind central block?

Would like to add a background behind the central block on our site but for every page.



Maybe just a silver or like a diamond plate background that has rounded edges.



How do I go about doing this.



You can see what block im talking about here www.harpermoto.com



I don't want just the background inside the black outlined box to be silver, but I want the background behind the block to be diff, but the inside of the block remain white as you can see.



Any tips

Adjust the central-column class in your css to either be colored as you want or have a repeating image for your background.

Learn to use Firebug so you can see what properties need to be adjusted based on your own desire rather than trying to explain it in text here…

i have fire bug but still trying to figure out how to use the dang thing=(

thanks for the info, ill see if i can figure that out in the css file



but of coarse since my firefox got up dated and took firebug off cause it wasn't compatible and cant find one that will work now.

Please look at the site and what i did. www.harpermoto.com



what i did is it took the whole background and turned it silver, i didnt want the white on the inside of the black outline to be silver, i want that to stay white.

Declare the background-color on the .mainbox-container class:



in local.styles.css (line 76)

.mainbox-container {
border: 2px solid #000000;
background-color:#fff;
}
