Help with Contact Sheet II

Hello,

I use the automated Contact Sheet II in CS2 and it works great. I would, however, like to have one change that I cannot manage. I would like the background of my contact sheets to be black instead of white and thus the text white, instead of black. Is there any way to make these changes? Those are not options when running the contact sheet routine.

So, this is what I do now. I make my contact sheets and uncheck flatten image. I then go back by hand and choose the text layers and manually change the text from black to white. I then use an action that finishes my pages for me with black background, scaling and flattening.

So my next question is, if there is no way to change the Contact Sheet II to do what I want, it there any script or action to automatically change all text on text layers from one color to another without having to do it manually individually?

Thanks for the help in advance.

All I can think of is to link all the text layers and merge them, then change the color all at once. Don't know if it can be scripted. I don't think you can do it with an action.
