Default How do I change the background color for the area above the main.tpl

I am working on the website affordablepaintballs.com. I need to know how to change the background color for the area in between the logo and main page.

I also need to know how to change the background color in the top header where the logo and "contact us" buttons are.

Ok, use webmaster mode to determine which template controls the region you want to edit, then open that template to see which class in the stylesheet applies to it.

I don't think you are understanding how Webmaster Mode works. If you move your mouse over the screen, the template will be highlighted and the template name gets highlighted in the debug console. That will tell you exactly which template controls which piece.
