changing the value of smalltext will change the appearance of the text in the dropdown box....but is also changes the color of all the small text! Which is not really good, especially if you have a dark background for your forum....you want a light color on the background for all that small text but the background color of the dropdown box is white....which will make the text hard to see.

I had the same problem as you and posted a msg in the bug forum about several of the things related to the CSS. This is one of them and think I will adopt your method. As I said in that post, I think they did an outstanding job on the CSS.

I did a no-no for which I will probably be forever banned from using FUDForum: I thought using the templates thru the CP to be VERY, VERY slow. So I just made a copy of forum.css and renamed it forumce.css. I made changes to that file and uploaded it. Then I just change the filename in the header template.

Early on, I spent a lot of time making changes thru the template process only to have the file overwitten in an upgrade or a re-install. I groaned but I happen to be a back-up freak and found a backup copy.
