I am assuming you are on Windows 10, if so, then Windows 10 with WB10  forces the explorer background to be white unless you go in and change the explorer background color settings for the skin in SkinStudio.

Go to Explore Windowblinds Skins. Download a Lightstar  and, or Don5318. They both do dark substyles. They also have pay and free skins available so if you just want to try it use a free one to make sure it works for you. Make sure on win10 you apply the dark substyle. 

If you find they work then you know your win10 is fine. You can change any skin you want in SKS as Tom said and if you need info on that come back and I will advise you how.

If your using Windows 8.1 open Windowblinds and select "Modify style" and chose "Background" and move "Active window opacity" all the way to the right and reload the skin. If I don't do this all of the skins that have a colored background are white.
