Probably a dumb question, but I've Googled and haven't found the answer.
If I'm creating an album layout in InDesign, how do I change the background color of the template I'm working with?
I've looked and looked! Then again, it's 5 a.m. so it could be staring me right in the face and I wouldn't know it. In which case, feel free to slap me with a trout.

you cant just make the background a different colour... it needs something to colour - draw a rectangle, zero it to the top left hand corner and make it the exact dimensions of the page - then just assign the swatch of your choice to this rectangle... make sure its arranged to the back of the page.

did you create the template or download it from somewhere?
good luck!
