Actually, I'm pretty sure the "murderball" background color is tdheader:
Code
<table border="0" class="t_inner" width="100%">
<tr>
<td class="tdheader" align="center" colspan="2">
<table border="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>
<img src="/forums/images/general/default/nonewimageposts.gif"  title="No New Posts" alt="No New Posts" />
</td><td>
<a href="/forums/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showgallery/Number/193203">Hold up the Moon</a>
</td></tr></table>

however, it doesn't look like the text has it's own class, so it'd use the body class for link colors.
