Changing diff color visual studio

I'm pretty noob when it comes to Visual studio. I am using 2012. I just downloaded the theme editor and got the son of obsidian dark background theme. When I do a diff, I get a very ugly green background for additions with white text. It's very hard to read. How do I change this? I tried looking in the XML, but I couldn't figure out what was what. Thanks.

To update the colors used in the diff tool, navigate to TOOLS>OPTIONS>Environment>Fonts and Colors. Choose Text Editor in the Show settings for: drop down. In the Display items: list you will find multiple Diff settings (ie. Added, Differences). Select the setting you want to modify and adjust the colors accordingly.
