After installing the black color variation the quotes dont have a grey background anymore, users dont like it and neither do I. What can I do to keep the colors and add the grey background to the quotes again?

Thanks in advance and kind regards

I think you can change the background from style.css. Look for .quote.

Use only the images folder and the style.css. I tried it on version 2 beta 3 and no problem.

How do i do that mate .... do i make a copy of the default theme or do i overwrite the default theme, or is there some other way.
Please explain in detail if possible.

The zip file contains a folder called images and style.css. Rename your original "images" folder  to "images_orig" and style.css to style_orig.css. Then copy the "images" folder from the zip file as well as the style.css. That's it.
