How do you adjust text and color in the IE Favorites list?

I am trying to adjust one skin I like (lignite) in skin studio.

When trying to adjust text, the one I always have a hard time with is finding where to adjust the text and color in IE Favorites.

My situation is the text in IE Favorites is black. When scrolling down among the entries a brown bar covers the text but the text becomes invisible. The IE Favorites list is the only place it does this. This is a entry in Skin Studio under "Control - Menus - Favorites Background and Favorites Text". Changing the text color and mouseover color has no effect on my problem.

Any ideas how to get the text to show so I can see it?

Sorry I can not help. Do you even no how to adjust any fonts at all?
Does Desktop Properties not work once WB is loaded?
My friend says in the WB config window you click the Advanced button
and then another Advanced shows and that is where you adjust ALL fonts,
but I don't get that option??

Changing fonts (face, size & color) within a skin is most easily done with SkinStudio. The section to modify is 'Controls/Menus/Favorites - Item (WB 5+)'.

I still can't find where to change the font & color for the 'Add to Favorites...' & 'Organize Favorites...' items at the top of the Favorites menu, but the rest of the items will change using these settings.

Of course, you need to define/add the font to the skin before selecting it in the section referred to above.
