i'm one of the guys at zunescene that has been working on changing some of the UI such as the colors. the easiest way to do it (if you want a really light grey font) is to:

download resource hacker. try google.

make sure the zune sw is closed.

then open up ZuneShellResources.dll (in C:\Programs\Zune) in resource hacker - then double-click RCDATA, scroll down to STYLES.IUX then double-click, then click 1033.

now copy all this text:
Code:
<Color Name="DarkGray"                  Color="190,190,190"/> 
      <Color Name="WarmGray"                  Color="107,101,90"/>
      <Color Name="LightGray"                 Color="186,186,186"/>
      <Color Name="VeryLightGray"             Color="246,246,246"/>

      <Color Name="InboxUnreadColor"          Color="{WarmGray}"/>
then highlight all of the same text in that 1033 window, then just paste this code in place of that.

click compile script. then save.

enjoy your new light font!

OR the really really easy way is to just replace your ZuneShellResources.dll with mine. but you'll end up with some other minor changes such as the color of the Now Playing icon (the little pink lines next to the Next button) - i changed it to white instead of pink.

just let me know or PM me for the file.

Hmm, guess maybe the next step is making a program that does this for you (changes the font to different colors), then make it do it inside the program itself.

there already is one out that does just that but i haven't taken the time to figure it out.

here's a quote from WillysJeepMan the author of the app over at zune scene where it was released:
Quote:
ok... v0.50 of ZSM-Toolkit now available:

Toolkit (commandline tools)
http://percontifamily.com/ZSM-Toolkit-v0.50.zip

support files (reshacker & sed)
http://percontifamily.com/auxtools.zip

Make sure to read the README.... utilities that you may find particularly useful:

ZSMextractRes - This utility will extract all of the resources found in the .dll. It does not modify the contents of the ZuneShellResources.dll nor the individual files that were extracted.

ZSMupdateSingle - This utility will update a single resource found in the .dll.

ZSMStylesExternalizer - This tool modifies all references to Styles.UIX in all .UIX resources to refer to an external file. Once this tool is run and the updated ZuneShellResources.dll placed in the active Zune folder, you will need place your Styles.UIX file into:
Crogram FilesZuneCustomSkin
