Don't ever worry about asking a question, we've all been new. Though most questions will have been asked before, as you can see in the Feedback, Suggestions and Help section.
Red/green under a user's name is karma. Green is good, and red isn't. You give or take it by clicking on the little scales icon on a person's post.
Yellow/gold usernames are from when we had the Accy Web award nights, if people won a catagory, after being voted for by other members.
Bold green usernames mean those people have donated to the running costs of the site, and black usernames are the moderators. Easily spotted if you ever need their help, and want to contact them.
Hope that helps.
By rights my username should be platinum, because I was a double award winner...but I'm not one to make a fuss.

Yes cashy, Your right, I think your name changes from red to green after your first 1000 posts, unless of course you donate to the site then it changes to a darker green.
But it wasn't a stupid question, there are some things on site that Roy set up, and even he's forgotten how they work, so they will remain an interweb secret for the rest of time.

Ackers.
I was a millionaire, after swallowing my Methodist priciples, and betting my shirt on a rank outsider to win Big Brother.
I want my ackers back.
I've got two empty sacks, and haven't been half as feisty since they were taken from me.

Doesn't seem fair -when did these award nights stop?
While I love green as a colour I would like to be able to transform it into another colour.
Another question -some names also have a cross by them -how come? Yours has one and Susie 123 -why?
Can I have a heart by my name please? Pretty please?

Friends, I think.
Though my friend list was cleared, because of stalkers, and kids reading my blog.
If shops got him goin', my adventures would have finished him off.
