Change Background Colors For The New Facebook

The Facebook background colors are essentially the same for every user. Unlike other social networks such as MySpace, Facebook allows users to alter their background colors. If you wish to change the background colors of your Facebook pages, you can use one of a few different tools. The custom background and colors will change only in your own browser and won't be seen by others.

1. Visit the PageRage website (pagerage.com) in your browser. The site supports Internet Explorer, Chrome and Firefox browsers.


2. Click the "Browse Facebook Layouts" button near the top of the page to view a list of layouts to choose from.


3. Click the "Preview" button to see a preview of each layout until you find one you like, then click "Select This Layout." Follow the onscreen prompts to install the plugin and the custom layout. Your Facebook background will now change to reflect the new theme.
