    Set background of apps list?

    Apologies if this is already well known ... I could swear that when I first got the g2, the apps list screens had the same color-swoosh background as the "main" screen(s), or at least some similar hue. As of today that background is white. Ugly... How can I re/set that to something more pleasant?
