Yea, I see grey because of my custom desktop theme.. I Use custom Windows themes..

Whatever it is it has something to do with the body wrapper and affects above and below the body. IE the header and the footer. I moved

</div> <!-- closing div for body_wrapper -->

to the bottom of the footer template so you don't see it there atm but if you hit go on a page that is shorter than your open browser you will see it is still there.. just hidden on a full page by moving that to the bottom of footer.. I moved the footer inside the body in other words.. but I can't figure out how to do that with the header. That would fix it sort of or at least hide it but i would like to figure out how to just change the color for the body wrapper to transparent instead as it would be a better solution.
And yes the footer and header backgrounds have been set to transparent so I have no idea what it is or why it is happening. But for some reason anything outside of body gets covered that way. It's a bug of some sort..
