XF 1.4 Minor styling changes for New Posts / Recent Posts

[Amin Sabet]

How can I have different background colors for alternating rows in New Posts and Recent Posts. I just want two colors alternating every other row. Not a bunch of colors.

Also, how can I change the color of the node titles to stand out better on these pages?

Both parts of what I want to change are shown below.

I found the answer to the first part of my question here: https://xenforo.com/community/threads/alternating-row-background.47641/

No longer want to do part 2, so I am all set.
