You will need to change the style.css file. Open it in Notepad and change the first occurence of
to something like
Code: Select all
color : yellow;background-color : black;
To further customize the style file you can learn more about CSS functions here:

height: 1px;
}
font.ip {
color : Gray;
font-family : Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 9px;
}
also I would like to get the topic in red and in the reply font color from black to yellow other wise you will not be abale to see it in a black back ground.
Here is the test link to my site the back ground is black but not when you click on a message or reply which I also want to be black

Firstly you have a wrong setting, that's why your posts don't have the same theme as the main page. In the settings.php file change
Code: Select all
$settings['mboard_url']='http://allbridges.info/Big-Gulp/mboard.php';
to exactly this:
Code: Select all
$settings['mboard_url']='http://allbridges.info/Big-Gulp';
Secondly note that any changes you make will only be visible on main page (mboard.php) and any
new posts you make, old posts might not be effected by all the changes.
Thirdly - we can't help with every color combination, so try playing around the style.css file a bit - change a color code and see what it does
