I ran into troubles with xfce, and decided to try gnome3 again. This time I think I could manage it, maybe, if only the color combinations weren't so wrong. Maybe young eyes can see white text on gun metal gray menus, but my old eyes can't. Where do I change the likes of that? Will it *stay* changed?

If you can find a tool that will let you pick different themes, you could see if some other theme works better. If you can't find a theme editor, you can always drop into dconf-editor and manually modify the gtk-theme attribute in org.gnome.desktop.interface.
I've been using oxygen-gtk.
If you want to go crazy, you could copy the /usr/share/themes/Adwaita/* files to a different directory to make a new theme and try modifying the color selections.

Install Gnome Tweak Tool, download and install some shell and GTK themes, and choose one with the tool mentioned above. Gnome Tweak Tool is on repositories. Shell and GTK themes can be found in gnome-look.org
Hope this helps, Lailah
