How do I style the "Discussion Forum" Error messages and Email verify pages?

    Gosh this has me stumped.  My forum looks great, styled in red and black with the nice website logo, etc.  But when someone registers or if there’s an error, I get a totally different style with a white background and #DEDFE8 “content” background…I can see the styles in FireBug but can’t find for the life of me where these are changed in the stylesheets, templates, or anything.

    I resorted to using “grep” to search for that (fairly unique) color, #DEDFE8, and found one page “email_data.php” with that hard coded into it…yet even when I removed it from that page and tried to style…I still get the same error message.  Is this loaded somehow into a database and then called that way, not from php files or templates?

    I am totally stumped and I guess a little frustrated—it seems a no brainer that if you put the time and effort into styling your site, it should include ALL the pages.  This current way looks so hokey—as if some man-in-the-middle attack is going on.

    Any and all help would be fantastic.  Thanks for any suggestions.
