The post bg color should either be alt1 or alt2. If you installed the code provided here and it did not match then you would have to do the following:
Code:
<tr>
<td class="alt1" valign="bottom" height="100%"style="border-right: $stylevar[cellspacing]px solid $stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]">
$template_hook[postbit_signature_start]
<if condition="$post['signature']">
<!-- sig -->
<hr size="1" style="color:$stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]" />
<div valign="bottom">
$post[signature]
</div>
<!-- / sig -->
</if>
$template_hook[postbit_signature_end]
<if condition="$show['postedited']">
<!-- edit note -->
<div class="smallfont">
<hr size="1" style="color:$stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]; background-color:$stylevar[tborder_bgcolor]" />
<em>
<if condition="$show['postedithistory']">
<phrase 1="$post[edit_username]" 2="$post[edit_date]" 3="$post[edit_time]" 4="posthistory.php?$session[sessionurl]p=$post[postid]">$vbphrase[last_edited_link_by_x_on_y_at_z_postid]</phrase>.
<else />
<phrase 1="$post[edit_username]" 2="$post[edit_date]" 3="$post[edit_time]">$vbphrase[last_edited_by_x_on_y_at_z]</phrase>.
</if>
<if condition="$post['edit_reason']">
$vbphrase[reason]: $post[edit_reason]
</if>
</em>
</div>
<!-- / edit note -->
</if>
</td>
</tr>
I've highlighted the change in red. This change is replacing the last step mentioned above in my first post.
Hope this helps.
