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 92% (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:

Light Gold - #C5A261

Light Brown - #876230

Almost any colour can be used for hyperlinks on this background

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.
