Changing the background color
Changing your background colors is easy! If you want to change a section's background color:   
Right-click the background of the section header that you want to change (be careful to click the background, not the text box!)
Click "Change Background"
Choose your color!
Re-publish your app on my.poexis.com!
Congrats! You just changed your background color!
Your new section should look something like this: 
A color-changed "About Me" section as seen on an iPhone!  
Making an image/gif your background image
You can also make an image or a gif the background of a section! It just takes a couple extra steps!
Add a new slide underneath the section header (we're using the QR code section)
Change the layout to a "Title Layout"
Make sure to select "Title Layout" and not "Title Slide"
Click the image block and select "Upload from your computer"
Select your image/gif from your computer
Your app isn't ready yet! We've got to add a Scroll sticker to that new slide!
You're almost done! But to make the slides work, you'll have to add a sticker to the slide with your new image. 
Go to a slide with the Scroll sticker (the little sticker that looks like two links) and copy the sticker
Paste the sticker onto your new Title Layout slide (the slide with your new background photo) 
Re-publish your app on my.poexis.com!
Congrats! You just changed your background color!
Your new section should look something like this:
