background colour vanished

    The background colour on my blog just disappeared and it comes up white on Firefox, Atomic, Skyfire and Safari. When I look in appearance > background, the preview image does show the correct colour (#eff6e0) and I've tried changing it there but whatever colour I choose, it just appears white online.

    I've seen suggestions for fixing this through CSS but I don't have access to that.

    This is the blog: http://thelemursarehungry.wordpress.com/

    Any ideas? Help gratefully received...

    The blog I need help with is thelemursarehungry.wordpress.com.

    Same exact problem as hungrylemur reports.
    Blog: yellowdoggereldemocrat.wordpress.com
    Theme: NotesIL
    Browsers: Firefox, Google Chrome (both on Ubuntu Linux)
    Problem began suddenly about an hour ago, not in response to my doing any specific thing.
    NOTE to your coder: the BODY tag has been changed by your system. Apparently an attempt is made to set the background color using a STYLE property, but the attempt fails. Prior to today, the background color was set directly via the BODY BACKGROUND property, not via a style.

It will be moved to the Themes Forum where Themes Staff monitor threads and will respond to you people.
