Hi all,

I'm new to this and really like Slate, but would like to change up the black/dark grey background to something more blue/purple. I'm aware that this would be done in the CSS (I've not got much experience there) and that it would be even better to put changes in my local.css file. As a test I put the following in my local.css:

html,
body {
     background: #fff

I'm aware #fff is white, but I've not seen any difference in my theme even after flushing the cache. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Interesting. I tried using this:

html,
body {

This ended up working for me. What is the difference?

remember the semicolon at the end

#fff  is not the same as #fff;
