im a andriod newbie and was wondering if you could customize the text message appearance on the evo 3d, such as different colors, font size, etc

You can with other sms apps. I use Handcent.

+1 on Handcent

I used it a lot on my old EVO 4G with the CyanogenMod 7 ROM.

Go SMS Pro, which is free is pretty cool too!

I hated Handcent, went with Go SMS Pro because you can set incoming texts to light the screen (not just the LCD) on the phone.

Handcent can do that.

I couldnt figure it out, I don't know. Must have missed the setting somewhere.

Have no idea why this isn't a setting with the stock messaging app, which looks the best anyway.

...another vote for Handcent.
