  I’m using Twenty Ten. My background for my posts is white. I just activated the neat snow feature, but you can’t see it across most of the blog because the background is white.

  I went to the settings and changed the background color, but that just changed the frame, not the background of the posts themselves, which means the snow shows up only on the very edge of the blog.

  Is there a way to change the background color of the posts? The example at the top of the page on the theme (http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/twentyten/) shows a non-white post background.

  It’s SNOWING in Scotland today, so this is needed! :)

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  It can be changed with CSS which requires the Custom Design Upgrade.

  Look at your theme and the demo theme at http://twentytendemo.wordpress.com/ and you will see a sliver of grey at the very top which is part of the “background” that you set.

  The grey you see in the screenshot is just the background that they inserted behind the screenshot since otherwise it would just blend into the white on the page and you would not know where the boundaries of the theme were.
