    If you are using Wordpress's own themes you can edit and change the colours without changing any of the code. Here is a link to information on Wordpress site (not affiliate) Search › editing themes

    It looks like your header color is white? It's hard to tell because every code is a little different. Where it says color: white; try changing it to a hex color... for example color: #333333;

    That could work. If not, most themes have editors for simple options like that.

    #surheader{
    width: 1000px;
    margin: 0 auto;
    color:white;
    text-align: right;
    font: 75% Arial,Helvetica,Sans-serif;


    padding: 6px 0 0 0;

    If you're using Firefox you can install the firebug add-on. That will enable you to find the exact selector you need to change. Here's an article on how to do that:
