1. Select a background color by clicking on the small gray box next to the word
“Background color.” The Colors palette pops up. Use the eyedropper tool to select a color (note: many of
the colors are repeated). Click Apply to preview the background color in the Document Window. Test
different colors until you find one you like.
The background of the Web page can be filled with a solid color or an image. Background images are
usually small (no more than 200x200 pixels) images that tile to fill the entire browser window.
Background images should be used sparingly, as they easily overwhelm the rest of the page and make
text difficult to read. Most professional Web pages have solid-colored backgrounds, perhaps with a
patterned bar down one side of the screen.
2. Click in the small grey box next to the
word “Text” to use the color palette to
select a text color for the page. Text will
appear in this color as it is typed, but
color applied to individual characters,
words, or sentences overrides this
setting. If no color is specified the text
will be black.
If desired, select an
image to tile and fill the
background of the page.
Select a solid color for
the page background.
