It seems that the other set is not going to work so don't use it... Just simply open up your common.css sheet and find these lines
body { margin: 8px; background-color: #F2F2F2; /* #EBEBEB; */ color: #000000; }
Then Replace these with the color of outlook blue which is like #3768BC for Outlook Blue Or #9AAC70 for Outlook Olive Green which I used in all of the # Fields and it worked... That section should be at the very top of common.css then you need to go to the footer section and put the same #s into there which should be a little down from the body. Looks just like this.. Go on change the f2f2f2 to your color :)
#footer { position: fixed !important; left: 0px; right: 0px; bottom: 0px !important; height: 40px; background-color: #f2f2f2;
Cheers & Enjoy! Blob
