Hey DD,
Just add or modify your style css to change BG color (#ffffff).

body {padding:0px; margin:0px; border:0px; background:#ffffff;}

the actual background of the site looks like its dependant of this file : bg_grad.jpg, if so can you just delete it and replace it with something else or
would that cause problems? when i open it in flash it looks like some kind of bitmap or something and i guess it creates a mutiple image of it to create the background does that sound right ?

ie if i make a new bg_grad.png would i be heading in the right direction or am i barking mad

In your stylesheet, the background is being defined in the following body style:

body{
font-family: Arial,sans-serif;
color: #333333;
line-height: 1.166;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
background: #cccccc url("bg_grad.jpg") fixed;

Change the background hex code to the color you want on your background and delete "url("bg_grad.jpg") fixed". Example for a white background:

background: #FFFFFF;
