***** NOTE ABOUT SCREEN RESOLUTIONS *****
The dimensions of these skins vary from
1500-1024 x 1024-800.
Most are 1280 x 971.
On a monitor with 1024 resolution, the side designs going from top to bottom on both side will be close (about an inch) from the edge of your monitor.
A monitor with a 1280 resolution will show more of the background pattern on the sides of the monitor.
If you use a wide screen monitor then you may see some plain color along the sides/top of your monitor. You can make that color match (or contrast) a color in your background by doing this....

From your Dashboard under "Layouts" click on "edit HTML"
and find the code that looks like the sample code below
/* Use this with templates/template-twocol.html */
body {background:$bgcolor #FFC&DA;
background-image:url(URL GOES HERE);
changing just the numbers/alpha in this part of the code
that follows the # symbol...leaving the # symbol there
bgcolor #FFC&DA
Here's a link to a color chart....
