a)You can use the "graphregion(color(white)))" option.

b)the banners are regarded as subtitles and so one manipulate them with the
"subtitle(  )" option.  Something like either:

    subtitle(, pos(11 ) nob)
    subtitle(, pos(11 ) )
    subtitle(, pos(11 ) nobexpand)

And so all together:
twoway (scatter gnppc lexp), by(region, total graphregion(color(white)))
subtitle(, pos(11 ) nob)

Hope this helps,
Scott
