We are building a site ( www.crowdawork.com ).
I cannot change the look and feel of the Sign Up form.
Please visit the page and compare the look and feel of the page after doing a search and than when you try to Sign Up.
Where and how do I change the colors of the different items (Background color, Hover Color, Text Color, Link color) in the CB registration and login pages?
Tried to install the mycommunity template through the Plugin management tool and made it Default. No effect.

I'm desperate. Please help.

CBs registration doesn't have a background color. Whatever color is on the element above it will be the background color.

Where and how do I change the colors of the different items (Background color, Hover Color, Text Color, Link color) in the CB registration and login pages?

You write the necessary CSS and supply it to CBs template CSS override parameter. See below on where to place your custom CSS.

Your issue however appears to be that the component output area of your Joomla template is missing a background or has same background as the page body.

Hi and thanks for your reply.

What you proposed did not work even though I did like you described on the post.

What should I try next?

Whatever CSS you wrote doesn't have a strong enough selector then. See the below if new to CSS.

developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/CSS/Introduction_to_CSS

The div element surrounding the component output in your Joomla template has an ID of sp-component. It doesn't have a CSS class. You can add a background to it with something like the below.

Code:
#sp-component { background-color: white; }
