I do not know why you changed the design of the media list. Before it had a background! How can I make a background in mystyle? I only managed to have background in part of it. Looks like a table in a div!

Which part do you want to add a background to?

I can see that you have this in your mystyle.css:

#medialist-page .media-list-data {
    background: #E6FFC7 repeat scroll 0% 0%;
}
#medialist-page .pagination {
    background: #E6FFC7 repeat scroll 0% 0%;
}

A couple of issues:
1 – you are just adding a colour, so you don’t need repeat, or positioning etc. Just use the tag “background-color”.
2 – you are making life far too complicated targeting multiple small elements.

Try removing those and just put:

#medialist-page {
    background-color: #E6FFC7;
}

If that’s not what you want, you’ll need to be more specific (preferably a picture?).

To do that you should first decide if you want the whole site to use a different colour for links, or just the media list page.

Colors theme sets all links, for all palettes the same, with this code:

a {
    color: #333;
    text-decoration: none;
}

Then in a few places it does change it, for example to use white text where links are on a coloured background (for example – menus):

.makeMenu li a {
color:#fff;
}

This is in each palette.

So in a similar fashion you could either:
1 – change the default for the whole site. That would not change the menus or any other specific change.

a {
    color: #0000ff; 
}

2 – change it just for the media list page:

#medialist-page a {
color:#fff;
}

You will probably need to experiment with these to get the right result. Remember, you can also add underlining and different effects on hover / active / states etc. (http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_links.asp )
