It's theme.css you want to be editing, matrix.css does not exist.

Scroll down and look for this code 

#gallery {
    font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size: 62.5%;
    color: #333;
    background-color: #fff;
}

That should get you going. You may want to look at just using a color pack. I believe RC1 has a black color pack in it.

There should've been some installed with your gallery install. But you can find some user contributions here, http://codex.gallery2.org/index.php/Gallery2:UserContributions

You may need to install the color pack module depending on which package of G2 you installed though. You can download that here, http://codex.gallery2.org/index.php/Gallery2:Download

To change color packs for you theme or album go to Site Admin > Themes > your theme > select a different color pack. For an individual album Edit Album > Album (tab)

okay I tried that it didnt work all it did was make all the text on the page white and all i need is where the users login and put in there passwords to be white also was wondering on the gallery main page i want to be able to click on the gallery name in the upper left corner and have it go back to the websites home page that the users came from how would i do that?

***Okay fixed the login and password section by doing this.

#giFormUsername, .giFormUsername {

background: url('../matrix/images/userinfo.png') no-repeat 0 1px;
padding-left: 17px;
color: #fff;
}

#giFormPassword {
background: url('../matrix/images/key7-16-bw.gif') no-repeat 0 1px;
padding-left: 17px;
color: #fff;
}

i just added what is in red and it worked great. but still need help with the link thing on the main page

I don't really follow on what you want for a link. Do you want gallery to see where they came from, remember it and assign that as a link, or would you rather have it hardcoded to your home page?

The sticky at the top of this forum should get you there.

Edit theme.tpl for your theme. Be sure to follow the directions about creating a 'local' directory or clone the theme to make your own.
