There are some plugins already designed with your situation in mind, here is a couple:

You can also change the font color & size of your game chat without plugins, in the Option panel; Chat. I hope it helps.

There are also many UI skins that change the color of the background on windows: http://www.lotrointerface.com/downloads/cat2.html
