 Heh-heh, I've asked the same question less then 4 days ago.
Here, I'm forwarding you the reply I got.

I have this in my ~/.gtkrc:

   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"

Change the fg[NORMAL] to the colour you want, with each channel
going
from 0.0 to 1.0.  If you change your GTK theme from the control
centre
it might overwrite this, I'm not sure how careful it is.
