Wait, what is the color of the Web page background?<br />

Remember that Ready Bake <strong>CSS</strong> in the myPod “index.html” file?<br />

That <strong>CSS</strong> is what sets the background color of the page to light<br />

green. And that’s where we can get the color:<br />

<br />

body { background-color: #eaf3da;}<br />

<br />

Set the matte color<br />

Here’s the background<br />

color right here.<br />

What? You can’t tell that’s light<br />

green? For now take our word for<br />

it; we’ll come back to this in a few<br />

chapters and explain all about colors.<br />

When you click on the Matte pulldown menu and choose the “Other...” menu<br />

option, Photoshop Elements will bring up the Color Picker dialog.<br />

adding images to your web pages<br />

The Color Picker gives you a lot<br />

of different ways to choose the<br />

matte color. We just want to set<br />

it to the background of the Web<br />

page, and we already know that<br />

is eaf3da...<br />

... which is going to go right here.<br />
