Upgraded to 2015 from Version 12

[ACB]

I received an error trying to create a template so I copied over my files to User Sites under NOF2015 and opened the .nod file.
The style Candid Blue is not identical. The shading in the middle of the page is gone and the middle of the pages are white.
Everything else, buttons, banners, etc are the same. How do I get the gradient shading in the middle of the page back. I have
attached two examples, one from NOF 12 and NOF 2015.
