i've seen xangas and they have liek a background and then the part where they type is a different color.. with the background i have its really hard to read! so i'm tryin to figure out how to do that, but i just cant seem to figure it out! i hope that makes sense! thanks a bunch!

<style type="text/css">
table.blogbody {
/* this edits the other the place where the blog is */
background-color: transparent;
width: 450px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
border-width: 3px 3px 3px 3px;
align: center;
}
</style>

where it says backround color.. put in your hex (remember to use #sign)
also..if you don't want a border.. change the part that says solid #000000

hope this works for you :)
