There currently is not a way to change the color of the font. However, you can move it to a better location if that makes it easier. Mine sits at the bottom and the very center of my screen, so when i look around, its always easily visible.
If you want to change its location, go into flight, then pull up your clipboard and go into options>preferences>GUI (I think that's the location, I'm not in front of my desktop) and then you can drag everything on the screen to where you want it.
