HOW do i… change the background colour behind THE TEXT..ie the greyish colour?

To change the body background color, you can do that from the Appearance → Background page.

With CSS, you could start with something like this:
```
#page {
  background: #553A1C;
}
```
And you may want more help changing out other colors if you did that, like the footer background color or the top border above the header area. Let us know if this puts you on the right track.

Do you mean for the site title?

To change the color of the site title in the Twenty Eleven theme, use this:
```
#site-title a {
  color: #FEF9C2;
}
```
This will adjust the hover color of the site title with CSS:
```
#site-title a:hover {
  color: #ABDEAC;
}
```
Or you can update all link colors in one change by updating the “Link Colors” option on the Appearance → Theme Options page for Twenty Eleven.

Is it possible to have SOME pages one column and some pages two? If so how do I do THAT?

The pages in Twenty Eleven have a couple page templates which you can see in the Page Attributes box if you look around while editing the page. If you don’t see it right away, check to make sure Page Attributes is checked in the Screen Options tab (top right).

If you choose the “Sidebar Template” option for a page, it will show two columns (right side will be the sidebar). Note that this is only for pages, not posts.
