Align the text properly by putting the entire contents of the page in a single-celled table, align it to the right, and make the width 90% (That is the width that I found was right for this background. You can adjust the width if you want to, just make sure that the text doesn't overlap the border.)

Suggested text colours and their hexadecimal form:

Blue-Grey - #55869D

Turquoise - #46998E

Purple-Grey - #8D6779

You can use a combination of those colours for your text, visited link, and unvisited link colours. View the source of this page to see how the HTML is done.
