The help area on this wiki is very good, if you hover the mouse over your avatar picture, a drop down box will display, click help. This will take you to Help:Contents, from there a search for color (American spelling), which will show some pages, try Help:Color, it has many of the shades with their codes. As Gold Crazed1115 pointed out the full background colour is reserved for Admin, you would need to manually change the background on every post, as you have demonstrated, it will give a similar affect.

I original chose a green background, but blue links on green didn't do. As Christmas is coming I thought white text on red ;) it is a bit bright, it was supposed to be a dark red, I may review it again in a few months :)
