Gallery background colors differ from homepage colors

[Mohamed.Ghuloom]

Recently I decided to put up a pic in my footer which its background is fully black. It blends in perfectly with the black background in my homepage but I just discovered that my other pages (galleries, etc..) are having a slightly different background color ( #161616 ). How is this possible? I thought my whole website is full black. Is there anyway to make my whole website full black so my footer image blends in perfectly in all pages?

Im wondering if there is no solution for the problem I have

You can add this CSS to fix your gallery and category pages to be pure black background:

body, #bodyWrapper, #bodyWrapper #photos {background: none !important; background-color: #000 !important;}

If there are other pages, please post a link to those pages. If you wanted to be insensitive to this, you could make your logo be a transparent PNG image (have no background at all) so it would blend with whatever background color your site has.

Sorry to highjack the thread, but you seem to have had your question answered and I have a similar related question.

I don't have a plain black background for my site, I'm usung one of the themes. My gallery pages (links to category) don't match, so is there a way to make the gallery pages display the same background theme as the rest of the site?

Thanks.

- LucGalleries can have the same theme as the rest of your site. The easiest way is to go to the Control Panel and set the default theme for your site (customize tab, all pages theme). This will change the theme for any page in your site that you haven't specifically set another theme on. Individual pages (homepage, category, sub-category, galleries) also have a themes button so you can set any individual page to a specific theme too that will override the default, but it's best to set the default first.

OK, I went in and set the default, that worked for the background on my categories page. However, I was using this hack:

to arrange the galleries 2x2. Now that's not working. I tried removing that pice of code, and then adding it again, but it still hasn't worked...help?

.albumLarge {
width:156px;
padding:0 0 5em 0;
margin:0 100px 40px;
}


The spacing is probably slightly different in the different theme.
