# modifying the default theme – weird background ?

 * On this page: [DSA blog](http://supportanalytics.com/blog/), I am trying to get
   rid of that light grey background around the blog. I need it to be the same color
   grey as the rest of the background. I cannot get it to happen.
 * I have changed the CSS. I have changed the images for the footer and the file
   that looks like it is causing that grey (file called kubrickbgwide.jpg). But 
   it will not change.
 * Could someone please tell me where I am going wrong? What am I overlooking that
   causes that background? I know this is newbie question and appreciate your frustration
   but I would appreciate your help even more.

 * No, I already changed that file. It makes no sense! I’ll look at that image again
   to make sure I didn’t miss something but I already changed that image.
 * If that isn’t it what else could it be??
 * Thank you.

 * No, that definitely isn’t the image causing the lighter gray “halo” around the
   blog. I swear it is the kubrickbgwide.jpg file but even when I change that file
   the halo remains.
 * I don’t understand and I’m very frustrated.

 * OK – right click on the grey background and select “view image”. Look at what’s
   in the browser uri field.
