In fact, when I did that it put the kubrick background image onto the home page as well.

The best way to over-ride this is to place a body selector in front like so:

body #page {background:ETC... !important;}

I used firebug and saw that the bg image in the original kubrick style has an !important designation, so maybe I can't override that with my own !important?

#page {
background:url ("http://uncglobalhealth.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/bg-blog.gif") repeat-y scroll center top transparent !important;
border:1.5px solid #BEBEBE;
text-align:left;
width:760px;
background:#ffffff;
padding:0;
}

Since I don't see an image set for #page in the CSS customization window, that means I need to put something else there in order to override what's there?

site is public now, btw.

The background is actually an image set with #page which you'd need to change assuming you still want the border effect to be present.

#content.widecolumn {margin-left:50px; width:650px;}
.entry ul li:before, #sidebar ul ul li:before {content:"";}
.entry ul li, #sidebar ul ul li {list-style:none inside disc;}

My final question was about redefining the unordered list class.

I am having issues with the margins on the individual post page. I'm already dealing with precious little real estate, width-wise, but how can I get the text to fill up more of the page? I can't figure out which style item to change.

Also, the background of single post pages won't change with the .page class, and remains white.

Finally, is there any way I can redefine the

    style? I don't like the double side carrots (but I can live with them).

    Thanks!
