For this site (and most sites), the main template controls the background color. Looking in the CSS file in the site template folder shows:

Code:

body {
background:none repeat scroll 0 0 #FFFFFF;
}

You should use Firefox and install Firebug to see the styles:

getfirebug.com/

Right-click on the item in a web page and choose "Inspect Element". The bottom part of the browser window will open to reveal the element (image, table, button, whatever) and the corresponding CSS. CSS cascades so you can see each line of CSS that impacts that element (and the file/line number it's located at).

If your customizations are fairly straightforward, you can just create the extra CSS and add it to your site CSS file (like the Q&D code). But if they're more complex, you should create a new template.

These are the culprits:

#kunena
tr.krowl td
tr.krow2 td
div.kblock

So now it's just a matter of finding these files, the lines and changing the colors to something suitable.

Woot.

You shouldn't make changes to Kunena files unless you absolutely have to. Add the following to your main site template:

Code:

#Kunena tr.krow1 td {
	background: #XXXXXX !important;
}
#Kunena tr.krow2 td {

	background: #XXXXXX !important;
}
#Kunena div.kblock {
	background: #XXXXXX !important;
}
#Kunena .kblock div.kheader {
	background: #XXXXXX !important;
}

Replace the X with your colors.

Great. Set them all to black. Now i'll work on getting the right shades of gray.

Figured out the stickmsg color too.

One complaint about firebug... i can't select and copy text in it. Ah well.

Thanks!
