Ethan-
You need to be more explicit about what you mean by 'background'. Do you
mean:
(a) the entire plot including margins?, or
(b) only the plotting area?, or
(c) a different color for both margins and plotting area?
If you want (a), the solution is par(bg = '#003D79').
If you want (b), the solution is a little trick I picked up from the R help
archives:
plot.area.col<-function(col){
ttt<-par()$usr
rect(ttt[1],ttt[3],ttt[2],ttt[4],col=col)
}
plot(1,1,
panel.first=plot.area.col('#003D79')
)
If you want (c), you can combine both (a) and (b) as follows:
par(bg = 'blue')
plot(1,1,
panel.first=plot.area.col('red')
)
Hope that helps.

If you are using the plot function, and you only want to change the plot
area colored
