    Yeah, search the CSS files for background, background-color, a:hover, and anything with font before it.

    Hi lawinindia,
    Without having the code in front of it's hard to say what you need to change exactly, but here are the general CSS codes to change link and background colors as mentioned:

    Link colors; the link is the default color. Visited is once a user has clicked and already visited the page. Hover is when the mouse goes over the link and active if when a user clicks on it.
    
    a:link { color: #FF0000; }
    a:visited { color: #00FF00; }
    a:hover { color: #0000FF; }
    a:active { color: #F00FFF; }
    
    Code (markup):
    Background color
    element.class { background-color: #FF0000; }
    Code (markup):
