I've just started working on a few CSS templates I can use for layout designs. Run into a problem modifying the footer, where the About | FAQ | Terms | Privacy | Safety Tips etc stuff is.

How the heck do I control the colors/contents of that area?

I've got my testing profile here: http://myspace.com/zoodutest

Also trying to figure out why I can't fully center the profile and I won't understand why the background for the profile URL is white.

Yeah that page doesn't help much....this is down to how IE and FF handles CSS differently....

Fixed some issues now, but found another one with background transparency in the tables.

And is it even humanly possible to make table widths work the same in both browsers?

The colors for the footer can be adjusted in the a.text property.

So, you could use something like this...

a.text {font-family:arial !important; color:000 !important; font-weight:normal; font-style:normal; }
a.text:hover {font-family:arial !important; color:000 !important; font-weight:normal; font-style:normal; }

and just adjust the colors to suit your layout.

Yeah I solved the footer problem, wasn't with fonts but with background/table settings there. Found out how to do it.

So far unable to confine the footer links to the background width though, like the top links are.

Other than that it's fighting IE's inability to handle transparency properly.
