It belongs to the theme in my opinion. If you want to customize or remove the images, you can find them in /usr/share/themes/*/calendar/qgn_calendar_bg_*.jpg. The extension is misleading, the files are often PNGs.

Calendar seems to use hardcoded colors, Qalendar takes them from theme. For the first line on weekday buttons DefaultTextColor is used and SecondaryTextColor for the second. For current day both of them are painted with ReversedTextColor. DefaultTextColor and SecondaryTextColor seemed to be the most reasonable (I checked various colors from here: http://maemo.gitorious.org/fremantle...specificgtk.rc).

Some possible solutions:
  • modify calendar_weekday image in the theme,
  • modify DefaultTextColor and SecondaryTextColor value in the theme,
  • modify Qalendar to use a different color (but I do not know if other available colors are more appropriate than those already in use).

By the way, the dark horizontal lines are not visible, because Qalendar does not draw them yet.
