Oh, thank you SO much for spending a lot of time to make this. I think almost everything I wanted to know is here ("i think" because I just took a look at it and did not tested yet).
Thanks, thanks, thanks, many thanks.

I would love to try this...but I am hopeless with this kind of thing...is it that hard and should I give it a shot...I would love to just have a black background...not much more...maybe something at the top...how difficult is that...I am a total illiterate with this stuff...Help if you can...even if to tell me not to try it...

If you only want to change the background color you don't have to do much.
You need to add the following to your CSS box:
.journalbox{background-color: #000000;}
.journaltop{background: transparent;}
.f{background: transparent;}
And perhabs you should add a font color. because i think the premade one from dA won't b easy to read.
There for use .journalbox{background-color: #000000; color: #ffffff!important;} instead of the first .journalbox version.
color: ...; is for the font-color
To use a background image at the top additional it would be
.journaltop{
background-color: #000000;
background-image: url(...) no-repeat top left; <- for the ... add the path of the image
color: #ffffff;}

So I open the CSS box at the bottom and then type in the code you provided...and the font color and if I screw up can I delete it...I will give it a try soon...and save this info...a bit like algebra....

Yes
If you only want some color changes for your journals, you can write me a note and i'll write you the complete code. Just in case you don't know what to do.

That is all I want...a simple black background with I think that the features I do would look better on one...or do you have any suggestions than just black...as long as it is classy and simplistic...I want the art to stand out...not the background...something that shows it off to its full potential...thank you for your help and for writing back to me...K

I think black is the best to show images. Looks better imo
Will write you a note with the code.
