I'm using xterm and /bin/zsh, but it looks ugly. It's a white background with a black text. On debian, I use to right click and hit preferences and went from there. But when I right click it just highlights the shell. How can I customize background color, change font, etc?

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xterm should at least give you a good place to start.

Thank you, but how can I keep these changes? When I open a new terminal, it reverts to the old one

If you're used to this type of interface, do not use xterm. I recommend roxterm.

That ^^^ is probably a better suggestion than mine. Also, look at xfce4-terminal

Problem is, roxterm doesn't have the minamilistic look. It has borders, and tabs, which I can't remove. Thanks for the reply!

I made my Xresources file, but when I change it and launch a terminal nothing happens, am I missing something?

Did you catch the bit in the wiki about rereading the file after you edit it?
xrdb ~/.Xresources
You may also want to check out urxvt

In fact, you can. http://s27.postimg.org/3vp7z7cgh/roxterm.png
It's also very easy to configure (GUI or edit config), and you can switch profiles quickly.

There's a link to those guy's dotfiles on the page you mentioned.
And it's always better if you know what you are doing, so spend some time learning what does what.

He/she lists everything they are using right under the screenshot:
Much of the same from my other submission...
Arch Linux with Awesome WM and custom tile layout. Also using Compton for composition.
Firefox Nightly (Australis) [v31.0a1] and 4-Chan with my CSS. Using Vimperator for navigation.
(Firefox CSS can also place an url-bar on top (below the tabs or merged with the tabs on the left) or at the bottom of the browser)Terminals (URxvt-256color) showing from left: screenfetch and ncmpcpp + mpd.
My files can be found at twily.info (files updated for this theme May 17th, 2014)
The Lemon font and my vol/bat widgets belong to github.com/phallus.
Wallpaper: http://wallbase.cc/wallpaper/2…
If I was you, I would go through each thing listed and figure out each one. Understanding each element is essential.
