  No I’m sorry there isn’t. The “creative artistic part” is the background image.

  Hi timethief
  i just read another post that you make but now is close for reply.
  I erase my custom background as you recommend us in order to get the original desing, but it didnt work.
  i cant see again the “grungy textures and whimsically off-kilter text in the main menu”
  im working online with wordpress.com
  could you help me please?
  thanks

  yerbabuenacocina, clicking “Remove Background Image” in Appearance → Background will restore the original background image.
