  Sorry for the confusion. There should not be any brackets in the code. I put brackets just to emphasize that you should change that part. Your code should read like this:

  #twitter-3 {background: #000000;}

  Regarding your second question, unfortunately you can’t… they don’t have classes to make alternate background colors possible.
