The colors can be changed in the Admin Options. If you want to make any changes that affect the layout of the forums, or simply changes that cannot be made from within the Admin Options, you'll have to make the changes manually in the source files. That requires both good understanding of HTML and a little understanding of ASP/VB Script basics.
Many changes to the layout have been discussed in the various forums, so please, if you need help, do a search first and then post.
it depends on what you want to change. Most of the changes can be made by editing inc_header.asp and inc_footer.asp (those are the files you change for integration into a website like I did on http://www.frutzle.com/forums/ ). If you want to change the look of the individual pages you'll have to edit those pages one by one (like I did on http://www.rakkoon.com/blah.asp and some other pages on that site)
I can't tell you which files to edit because I don't know what it is exactly that you want to do.
