I have a UITableView with a custom background image set like this:

self.tableView.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"mybg.png"]];

The background appears fine, but my UITableViewCells (default cells, not custom) have some sort of weird tint to them, and the UILabel containing the "New Project" text also seems to have some sort of background behind it. How can I remove this? I've already tried:

cell.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
cell.textLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];

Thanks
