So I’ve switched WordPress.com themes again. While I love the larger-than-life fonts and rainbow colors of the most recently added theme “Spectrum”, I wanted something simple, like “Tarski”, which has templates for the “Archives” and “Links” pages.
But I discovered this rather old (but still new) WordPress.com theme works nicely:
Paperpunch by The Theme Foundry
A clean and versatile theme featuring a subtle, textured background. Paperpunch features a widget-ready sidebar and four additional footer columns to display all your widgets. Read more about Paperpunch →
Since I couldn’t have a FAIRY-TALE DREAM of unicorns, butterflies, rainbows, clouds, and flowers somewhere on my blog; I’ve browsed online, saw one that looked “normal”, uploaded and cropped a background image which had the “spectrum” of rainbow colors:
Then with the current “Custom Background”, I’m able to get a “Display Options” of Position: Right; Repeat: Tile Horizontally; Attachment: Fixed; and Color: BLACK (or #000000).

But alas, I see that the rainbow header looks better on this theme, except the damn sidebar rides up too high and covers the blue and purple rainbow colors, which are more than made up with the purple eye-candy tags.
