 * Hi,
 * I can easily change the theme background colour but it’s mostly pointless if 
   I can’t change the background colour of my posts (including titles, etc.). Is
   there a(n easy) way do it?
 * Many thanks in advance!

 * This is what I was looking for!
    Now I have also to solve two more things: the
   first one is to disable it for the front page, and the second one is how can 
   I add transparency? thanks so much!
