Default more fill color choices?

I want to change the background color of my chart and to do that I either
click on the button on my toolbar with the little paint bucket or I
right-click within the background and get a box that gives me color options.
But those methods only give me so many color options, and I don't like any of
them. How do I add more color choices? I want a light gray and currently my
only choices are too dark. Thanks for any help!

Go to Tools - Options - Color. Modify one of the 52 settings to any color
you want.
