Thank You...But the only color change was the background for each set of
fonts.

There is no inbuilt function in Windows to change the Font Color of the Icon
Labels. However, there are third party utilities available to do this:

Color.html

I will not recommended you to use this. As it doesn't work perfect with
Windows XP when you right-click on Desktop and choose Refresh. But you can
try. Not harmful.

Hope this help, let us know!

Thanks again for your help! I think I'll just leave the desktop as is.
