The hexadecimal colors for various parts of the forum are listed. Updating those colors will also change the color on the site.
Unsure of your Site's Colors or Need Help Finding Hexadecimal Colors
There are two places within your control panel to find some examples of the colors used on your site:
1) Under 'Master Settings' choose 'Edit Master Template'
2) Under 'Master Settings' choose 'Edit Font Settings'
There is also a Colorwheel Tool that can be found under the 'Tools' header in the left nav bar. Choose that Colorwheel to find some hexadecimal color codes to use on your page.
