Changing body background color in Bootstrap.css

I am working on Twitter Bootstrap
In my bootstrap.css, by default i have body background color as white. I want to change the back ground color to some thing similar to this site
http://return-true.com background color. ( i am not copying any website, just looking around the color background ). How to change the body background color which is similar to that site in bootsrap.css

body {
  margin: 0;
  font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
  font-size: 14px;
  line-height: 20px;
  color: #333333;
  background-color: #ffffff;
}

The site you have given us a link to actually has a background image - it is not a solid color.

If you want to change the color you just need to change the line "background-color: #ffffff;" and replace the "#ffffff" bit with the color you want.

Have a look at http://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_colorpicker.asp if you need some help choosing a color.

If you want a background image then you need to add a 'background-image' line to the CSS code.
