Lol I just took a look at pages… man is it slow at booting up lol. 

Well as for the color of the text I would suggest that you highlight something, 
and press cmd b to bring up fonts, then something like font actions it is a 
pop-up-button on the bottom row of buttons of the window, and there is a color

The background color is not such an easy question. Can you say HTML/CSS? 
Ooohoohooho! Code!
