For the shape, in a GMC window choose Settings > Preferences > Desktop >
Use shaped text.

In past weeks Andy posted some lines to add to your .gtkrc.mine:

---8<---
   style "gnome-desktop-icon" {
     fg[NORMAL] = { 0.85, 0.85, 0.85 }
     bg[NORMAL] = { 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 }
   }

   widget_class "*DesktopIcon*" style "gnome-desktop-icon"
--->8---

The numbers are RGB in range 0 - 1, and the fg is the one you need I
guess (if you use shaped text, bg will not be used, no? but better add
it with a matching colors, to avoid problems).
