That means you want to modify the *label* inside the button:
import gtk
def click(b, *args):
label = b.get_child()
b.modify_bg(gtk.STATE_NORMAL, gtk.gdk.color_parse("red"))
label.modify_fg(gtk.STATE_NORMAL, gtk.gdk.color_parse("green"))
def mainquit(*args):
gtk.main_quit()
def _test():
window = gtk.Window(gtk.WINDOW_TOPLEVEL)
window.set_title("title")
window.connect("destroy", mainquit)
close = gtk.Button(label="press me!")
close.connect("clicked", click)
window.add(close)
window.show_all()
gtk.main()
if __name__ == "__main__":
_test()
